Retirement tax questions
Form 8915-F is not related to the RMD questions. Every time you go back through the 1099-R section you will be asked the RMD questions. That doesn't mean that your answer wasn't saved and it has nothing to do with your Form 8915-F.
Form 8915-F is generated from a disaster distribution from a retirement account taken in 2020 or 2021. For most people this is due to the Covid-19 disaster, but it can also be due to another federal disaster in those years.
Please try these steps to fix the rejection issue:
- Select Federal on the left side menu.
- Under Wages & Income, find IRA, 401(k), Pension Plan Withdrawals (1099-R).
- Select Add/ Edit to the right.
- Click Continue on the Review your 1099-R info screen.
- Answer Yes to the Have you ever taken a disaster distribution before 2022?
- Answer Yes to Did you take a 2020 Qualified Disaster Distribution?
- Uncheck the box next to "If this was a Coronavirus-related distribution reported in 2020 check here" and click Continue.
- On the Which disaster affected you in 2020? screen I selected the blank entry and click Back .
- Then recheck the box next to "If this was a Coronavirus-related distribution reported in 2020 check here" and continue.
Another option is to delete "Form 8915-F" and "Qualified 2020 Disaster Retirement Distr" and then go back to the retirement section and reenter the information:
- Open or continue your return in TurboTax.
- In the left menu, select Tax Tools and then Tools.
- In the pop-up window Tool Center, select Delete a form.
- Select Delete next to Form 8915-F and Qualified 2020 Disaster Retirement Distr and click Continue.
- Confirm your Delete.
- Find Wages & Income, find IRA, 401(k), Pension Plan Withdrawals (1099-R), click Add/ Edit to the right.
- Click Continue on the Review your 1099-R info screen.
- Answer Yes to Did you take a 2020 Qualified Disaster Distribution?
- Check the box next to If this was a Coronavirus-related distribution reported in 2020 check here, and enter your information.
Please let me know if this worked for you.
