Retirement tax questions

For the box 7 code 4D - this worked for me today - I chose the 403b and it did ask about my inherited non-qualified annuity.. An inherited nonqualified annuity does not have RMD 

 

Follow these steps:

Your 1099R should have box 7 with a code D for nonqualified annuity and code 4 for inherited. Let's go through the steps:

  1. Open your return to the federal income
  2. Select the 1099-R and edit
  3. taxable amount -if box 2a has no amount or needs to be determined, the program will ask about cost basis. If 2a has a number and you select to use it, the program will not ask about the basis.
  4. continue to Enter the form
  5. No Public Safety Officer
  6. Age of person - before of after Jan 1, 1952.
  7. select no or yes
  8. select 403b plan
  9. RMD, enter zero
  10. continue

The program adds a penalty when you haven't taken the full RMD. The question is, did you take the full RMD? 

  • If yes, return to the screen where you entered the form.
    • RMD = distribution - You can mark the RMD is the same amount and all of it went to RMD, there is no penalty.
    • If the RMD is less than what you took, enter the smaller RMD, enter that NOT all of it went to RMD but $XX = RMD did.
  • For example: $1000 distribution with a $600 RMD. Enter not all of it but $600 toward RMD. Program is happy.  You can't say all of it and have a lower RMD. Review your answers.

 

  • If no, you did not take the full RMD, you would have a penalty.   @bruce80
