Retirement tax questions

Yes, you will add the excess deferral (regular 401 (k)) to your 2022 tax return with these steps:

1. Login to your TurboTax Account 
2. Click "Wages & Income" (under Federal) on the left side of your screen
3. Scroll  down to "Less Common Income" and click "Show More"
4. Scroll down to "Miscellaneous Income, 1099-A, 1099-C" and click "Start"
5. Select "Other income not already reported on a Form W-2 or Form 1099" and click "Start"
6. On the "Did you receive any other wages?" screen answer "Yes" and click "Continue"
7. Continue until you get to the "Any other earned income" screen, answer "Yes" and click "Continue"
8. On the "Enter Source of Other Earned income" screen select "Other" and click "Continue"
9. On the "Any Other Earned Income" screen enter "2022 Excess 401(k) Deferrals" for the description, enter the amount and click "Done".

Please be aware, if you made excess deferrals to a Roth 401(k) then these will not be added to your 2022 return.

If you receive the distribution of the excess deferral and earnings by April 15th then please note for the Tax Year 2023 tax filing due April 15, 2024: 

• 2023 Form 1099-R with code P in box 7 can be ignored if you reported the excess as described above in 2022 (Don't file an amended return).
• However, the earnings on 2023 Form 1099-R with Code 8 in box 7 should be reported in 2023.
