Retirement tax questions

The information about a distribution reported on Form 1099-QA needs to be reported on a tax return only if any part of the distribution was used for a purpose other than the support of a disabled individual

 

Any amounts distributed in excess of qualified disability expenses must be included in the individual's taxable income and will be subject to a 10% penalty.

  1. Open your return (if not already open).
  2. Enter "1099qa" in the Search box.
  3. Click on "jump to 1099qa" link.
  4. Enter your information.

  1. Open your return (if not already open).
  2. Enter "54989qa" in the Search box.
