Retirement tax questions

No, form 1099-R and form W-2 are not the same--they report different types of income.

 

The W-2 reports your gross wages and federal and state income tax withholding from your job.  To report wages from a W-2:

  1. Click on Federal Taxes >  Wages & Income.
  2. In the Wages and Salaries section, click on the Start/Revisit box.  

 

Form 1099R reports distributions from retirement plans.  These distributions are not always taxable--it depends on the code entered in Box 7 of the Form 1099R.  To report retirement income from form 1099-R:

  1. Click on Federal Taxes >  Wages & Income.
  2. In the Retirement Plans and Social Security section, click on the Start/Revisit box next to IRA, 401(k), Pension Plan Withdrawals (1099-R).
