Yes, you may have an additional 10% tax on this distribution if you are under 59-1/2. Similar to a W-2 form, 1099-R has both the income and the taxes that were withheld on it.
The amount withheld is just an estimate of the taxes on the distribution, and you may owe more or less when you file your return.
If you took a distribution from your 401(k) before you turned 59 1/2 and did not roll it over, you'll pay a 10% early withdrawal penalty, with a few exceptions:
- Death, or total and permanent disability
- Qualified Domestic Relations Order
- Series of substantially equal periodic payments based on life expectancy
- Dividend pass through from an ESOP
- IRS levy
- Unreimbursed medical expenses that are more than 7.5% of your adjusted gross income
- Certain distributions to qualified military reservists called to active duty
- Separation from service if age requirement is met
Once you enter the distribution information from your 1099-R form, TurboTax will help you check for any exceptions that could reduce the tax
