Retirement tax questions

How do you choose to pay the covid taxes back over 3 years? The help content says you can report the income over three years and gives the example of, if you withdrew $15,000 in 2020 for Covid, you could report 5,000 in income each year for the next 3 years. Does this mean we change the amount we withdrew on our 1099R form to reflect only 1/3 of this income? There are no directions on HOW to report this income over 3 years.
No - that is done when you enter the 1099-R and answer the follow up questions about COVID.
Enter a 1099-R here:
Federal Taxes,
Wages & Income
(I'll choose what I work on - if that screen comes up)
Retirement Plans & Social Security,
IRA, 401(k), Pension Plan Withdrawals (1099-R).
OR Use the "Tools" menu (if online version left side) and then "Search Topics" for "1099-R" which will take you to the same place.
Be sure to choose which spouse the 1099-R is for if this is a joint tax return.
Be sure to pick the correct 1099-R type: Standard 1099-R, CSA-1099-R, CSF-1099-R, RRB-1099-R.
[NOTE: When you get to the "Your 1099-R Entries" screen where you can add another 1099-R, use "continue" to keep going as there are additional interview questions after that screen in most cases. You can always return as shown above.]Enter a 1099-R here:
