Retirement tax questions
Yes, you can ask your financial institution for the information (address and Payer's TIN).
Yes, the total distribution is entered in box 1. If you had a loss enter $0 in box 2a.
Yes, box 7 will be J and P.
Yes, no other boxes will be filled out.
If you are over 59 1/2 you will enter the amount from box 2a under "Another reason" ($0 in your case since you had a loss so you don't need to enter anything if you didn't have earnings).
For the explanation: Return of excess contribution for 2022 of $xxxx (contribution amount) with a loss of $xxx (or if you had earnings "with earnings of $xxx")
To create a Form 1099-R in your 2022 return please follow the steps below:
- Login to your TurboTax Account
- Click on the "Search" on the top right and type “1099-R”
- Click on “Jump to 1099-R”
- Answer "Yes" to "Did you get a 1099-R in 2022?"
- Select "I'll type it in myself"
- Box 1 enter total distribution (contribution plus earning or contribution minus loss)
- Box 2a enter the earnings (or $0 for loss)
- Box 7 enter J and P
- Click "Continue"
- On the "Which year on Form 1099-R" screen say that this is a 2023 Form 1099-R.
- Click "Continue" after all 1099-R are entered and answer all the questions.
- Continue until "Did you use your IRA to pay for any of these expenses?" screen and enter the amount of earnings under "Another reason" if you are over 59 1/2 (if you are under 59 1/2 click "Continue")
Please be aware, code P will say in the drop-down menu "Return of contribution taxable in 2021" you can ignore that since the follow-up question will tell TurboTax that it will be taxable in 2022.
