>Handled properly, the RMD would have been paid to your wife and only the amount of the RMD would appear in box 1 of the 2018 Form 1099-R<
That is what I was concluding from my research, that at most the 1099 R should have shown only the RMD funds. I was not sure what the 5498's were for.
I will contact the person who moved the funds to the new "Inheritance IRA" to see about getting this corrected. (Or the old company)
Due to the time constraints, how should I handle the current 1099 R, leave it out of the current tax return or ?
Thanks for your help.
