Retirement tax questions

It would be helpful if you could clarify your situation, and we'll try to help.

 

A 1099-R is issued for a Retirement Fund Distribution (like an IRA, 401K, etc.) and is normally taxable income.

 

A 1099-B is issued for a Stock/Investment Sale, and reports either a Gain or Loss on the sale.

 

Since these are very different documents for different transaction types,  you most likely need to enter both of them into your tax return.
