Retirement tax questions

@ThomasM125 

 

Thanks for your perspective.  I was able to enter the content of the 480.7C succesfully.  I am planning to file via mail so I can physically attach the form itself and hopefully that will provide the IRS with full context.

 

As far as the Tax Withheld I may need further guidance as it is an uncommon situation.  The income that was rollover is Exempt from Federal Taxation because it was earned while I was a bona-fide resident of Puerto Rico and I was locally employeed.  The key now is that in principle, as PR withheld the local taxes on the rollover, the amount in the personal IRA has already been taxed.  I  need to figure out how to ensure there is no additional taxation in future distributions since the amount was already taxed by PR and is not taxable by the IRS.
