Retirement tax questions

No a letter is not required if you have filled out Form 5329 correctly and have a penalty waiver statement included. 

 

Your penalty waiver statement should include these points:

  • When you discovered the problem.
  • What you did to resolve it.
  • The missed distribution was intentional.

 

You already asked for a waiver and included your statement, so you should be all set.
