Retirement tax questions

Thanks @macuser_22. Following the instructions on Form 4852, I called the IRS today to discuss Betterment's 1099-R. They didn't say quite what I expected. I don't have the time or energy to write it up right now, but I'll post back to this thread this weekend if not earlier.


Depending on who you talk to at the IRS, you can get all kinds of different answers, unless you can get by the phone reps (who tend to guess a lot) to a 2nd tier specialist  in the subject.
