Retirement tax questions

If you take a distribution from your 401k you will receive a 1099R in late January.  You will enter that 1099R into the Wages & Income section of TurboTax--that distribution is taxable income to you.  In addition, if it is an early distribution, you will owe a 10% early withdrawal penalty.  TurboTax will calculate thatbased the date of birth you enter in Personal Info.
