Ok thank you for that update! 

So I will be able to file the 2020 distribution within this year’s tax return? Or do I need to amend last year’s instead as the poster above mentioned?

 

Thank You,

Alli


No.  As I said above a 2020 1099-R distribution can only be filed on a 2020 tax return.  There will be not be any 89!5-E form for 2021, that was  a 2020 form only.   The form for 2021 in the 8915-F form for those that filed the 2020 8915-E form deferring the tax over 3 years or taking 3 years to pay the distribution back.

 

@AmyC Please correct your answer.
