Retirement tax questions

If you have begun to receive Social Security benefits you need to watch for your SSA1099 that will be mailed to you by Social Security in January.   If you are receiving a pension, watch for a 1099R from the pension plan--or go to the plan's website to look for it.   If you are getting any distributions from a retirement account like an IRA or 401k, you will need a 1099R from the financial institution that manages the account.   You might be able to import it into tax software, depending on whether the financial institution is partnered with TT to allow importing data.

 

 

 Go to Federal> Wages & Income>>Retirement Plans and Social Security  (SSA1099 and 1099RRB) to enter your SSA1099.

 

 

To enter your retirement income, Go to  Federal> Wages and Income>Retirement Plans and Social Security>IRA  401 k) Pension Plan Withdrawals to enter your 1099R.
