in 2016 I had a 1099-R distribution of $6K, it was an early
distribution, the ira/sep/simple box was checked. Federal Tax Due window did
not change at all. In the next window its says, no extra taxes are due. This
was not an inherited account. It was moved from one retirement account to a
Roth IRA and all was left in that Roth IRA. In 2017 I had the same 1099-R
distribution. It is $5.5K. As before, it was an early distribution,
ira/sep/simple, but Federal Tax Due window went up by several thousand. Everything
else was the same. Only change I can see from 2016 to 2017 is that total income
went from $143K in 2016 to $164K but that includes the $5.5 1099-R
distribution. Why is the 1099-R distribution being treated as income in 2017
and not in 2016? Why does turbo tax in 2017 say no extra tax is due when it is
being counted as income and the taxes go up?
