Retirement tax questions

To report each of your three Form 1099-R distributions for your inherited IRAs, which each total exactly the amount of the RMD for each, do the following:

 

  1. Return to your 1099-R entries by clicking Review to the right of IRA, 401(k), Pension Plan Withdrawals (1099-R) in the Federal Wages & Income
  2. Click on the pencil to the right of the first 1099-R
  3. Click Continue through the entries you've made
  4. Ensure you selected, I inherited this IRA, Continue
  5. Enter the information about from whom it was inherited, Continue
  6. Answer the, "Did you have nondeductible contributions for this IRA?", typically "No", Continue
  7. Year when the person from whom you inherited IRA was born, Continue
  8. Next, "Let's get more information about your RMD", enter the distribution amount (which in your case is also the RMD), Continue
  9. Next, select, The entire distribution applied to the December 31, 2025 RMD, Continue
  10. Next, in the Review your 1099-R summary, Continue (not the pencil)
  11. Continue answering the questions
  12. Next, when you see "Let's go over any required minimum distributions (RMD), select Continue (not the pencil)

 

Follow the above steps for each of your Form 1099-R entries.

 

If you still receive alerts about RMDs, be sure each number is exact for each box. You mentioned uploading, so it's a good idea to carefully review.

 

If after doing the above steps, you receive alerts, you may go in and remove the Form 5329 (if one was generated), since you know it is all correct.
