Rule of 55, laid off and emptied accounts
I was laid off from my job in 2024 at the age of 57. I was unemployed for 8 months and used up all of my unemployment.
I participated in a 401k and a Roth while I worked there.
I emptied both retirement accounts (paid some taxes on the 401k, none on the Roth).
I also have a personal IRA that I withdraw from also during my unemployment period.
My 1099 R, Box 7 code 1 (Early distribution (except Roth), no known exception)
Do I qualify for a penalty exception of any kind, including The Rule of 55?
Is my 1099 R Box 7 wrong?
If I do qualify, which of my 3 accounts would it apply to?
