State tax filing

So the additional form you mentioned earlier is 8915-E.  I've actually worked through all of my 2020 returns and dealt with Form 8915-E already.  Only 1/3 of the corona distribution is being reported on my 2020 Federal return (and on my part-year NY return as part of Fed AGI).  The entire 100% of corona distribution is reported on OR state return.

 

But you have stated that the remaining 2/3 will NOT be reported on my next 2 returns.  How does 8915-E keep it off of my Federal return going forward?  That's not how I expected this to play out, but I'm happy to go along with whatever gets the job done. 

I was concerned by my inability to completely exempt the 401k from NY State and have been eager to find out what lies ahead as this plays out over the next 2 years.

 

Please correct me if I'm misreading or misinterpreting anything you've told me thus far.
