Deductions & credits

Since you paid 100% back in 2022 you will have to carry back some of the repayment to 2020 by amending your return:

 

  1. Login to your TurboTax Account 
  2. Click on the Search box on the top and type “1099-R”
  3. Click on “Jump to 1099-R”
  4. If you do not have any 1099-R answer "No" to "Did you get a 1099-R in 2021?"
  5. Click "Edit" on the “Your 1099-R Entries” screen
  6. Continue through the questions until "Did you repay any of this distribution" and select "I repaid part of the distribution"
  7. Enter the amount of repayment allocated to 2020.

 

 

You will file Form 8915-F to enter the repayment on your 2021 tax return once the form is available in TurboTax. Please see IRS forms availability table for TurboTax individual (personal) tax products for additional information.

 

For the IRS:

 

"If you make a repayment after the due date of your 2020 return (including extensions) but before the due date of your 2021 return (including extensions) and you have spread the income over 3 years, include the repayment on your 2021 Form 8915-E. However, you may file an amended Form 8915-E for 2020 if either of the following applies.

  • You elected on 2020 Form 8915-E, lines 9 and 17, as applicable, to include all of your qualified 2020 disaster distributions in income in 2020 (instead of over 3 years).
  • You have spread the income over 3 years, the amount of the repayment exceeds the amount of your qualified 2020 disaster distributions that are included in income on your 2021 Form 8915-E, and you choose to carry the excess back to 2020. See the example below.

Example

You received a qualified 2020 disaster distribution in the amount of $90,000 in 2020. The distribution was made on October 16. You choose to spread the $90,000 over 3 years ($30,000 in income for 2020, 2021, and 2022). On November 19, 2021, you make a repayment of $45,000. For 2021, none of the qualified 2020 disaster distribution is included in income. The excess repayment of $15,000 ($45,000 - $30,000) can be carried back to 2020. Also, instead of carrying the excess repayment back to 2020, you can choose to carry it forward to 2022."
