Retirement tax questions

You can report the removal on your 2021 return so that you can ignore the 2022 1099-R you will receive in 2023.

To create a 1099-R in your 2021 return please follow the steps below:

  1. Open your return
  2. Click on the "Search" on the top and type “1099-R”
  3. Click on “Jump to 1099-R”
  4. Select "I'll type it in myself"
  5. Box 1 enter total distribution (contribution plus earning)
  6. Box 2 enter the earnings
  7. Box 7 enter P and J 
  8. On the "Which year on Form 1099-R" screen say that this is a 2022 1099-R.

Since you had a loss, do not enter it in box 2a.
