Retirement tax questions

You mentioned earlier that the gross contribution is $20,443. That amount is non-taxable and ‌the remainder is earnings from interest. As you said, this is an estimate but taxable income is determined by the gross amount of the distribution minus your contributions made to the plan. From what I understand, all  contributions  to CPT are made with after-tax dollars.  

 

Any remaining amount is taxable because it represents earnings that have accumulated since 1998.
