You do not need to enter the 2024 Form 1099-R with codes PJ on your 2024 return unless there is Box 4 Federal Tax withholding and/or Box 14 State withholding. Then you must enter the 2024 Form 1099-R with codes PJ into the 2024 tax return since the withholdings are reported in the year that the tax was withheld. The 2024 code P will not add the income to the 2024 tax return income but the withholdings will be applied to 2024.
As dmertz mentioned you will have to enter the 2024 Form 1099-R with codes PJ on your 2023 tax return. Please see How do I amend my federal tax return for a prior year?
