After you file
Yes, the excess is created by the last contributions.
Calculating the earnings can be complicated especially with multiple contributions (please see 26 CFR § 1.408-11 for details) therefore it might be best to let your financial institution calculate the earnings. You will request the withdrawal of the excess contribution plus earnings and they will calculate the earnings for you.
The earnings will be taxable. TurboTax will use Form 5329 Part I to indicate the exemption from the 10% penalty if withdrawn after December 29, 2022.
During the IRA contribution interview, you will enter on the penalty screen that you removed the excess contribution but the extended due date:
- Login to your TurboTax Account
- Click on "Search" on the top right and type “IRA contributions”
- Click on “Jump to IRA contributions"
- Select “Roth IRA”
- Answer ‘Yes” on the “Roth IRA Contribution” screen
- Continue to the penalty screen and enter the excess contribution amount as removed.
You will get a 2023 Form 1099-R in 2024 with codes P and J for the withdrawal of excess contributions and earnings. This 1099-R will have to be included on your 2022 tax return and you have two options:
- You can wait until you receive the 2023 Form 1099-R in 2024 and amend your 2022 return or
- You can report it now in your 2022 return and ignore the 1099-R when it comes unless there is Box 4 Federal Tax withholding and/or Box 14 State withholding. Then you must enter the 2023 Form 1099-R into the 2023 tax return since the withholdings are reported in the year that the tax was withheld. The 2023 code P will not do anything to the 2023 tax return but the withholdings will be applied to 2023.
To create a Form 1099-R in your 2022 return please follow the steps below:
- Login to your TurboTax Account
- Click on the "Search" on the top right and type “1099-R”
- Click on “Jump to 1099-R”
- Answer "Yes" to "Did you get a 1099-R in 2022?"
- Select "I'll type it in myself"
- Box 1 enter total distribution (contribution plus earning or contribution minus loss)
- Box 2a enter the earnings (for a loss enter $0)
- Box 7 enter J and P
- Click "Continue"
- On the "Which year on Form 1099-R" screen say that this is a 2023 Form 1099-R.
- Click "Continue" after all 1099-R are entered and answer all the questions.
Please be aware, code P will say in the drop-down menu "Return of contribution taxable in 2021" you can ignore that since the follow-up question will tell TurboTax that it will be taxable in 2022.
