Retirement tax questions

No, not twice.  You will get a 1099R for the retirement withdrawal.  It will be taxable.   Then if you put it in a personal investment account and then took it out you may have to report a Sale from the investment.  

 

You get a 1099B for sales.  You only pay tax on any Gain you made (Sales price - what you put in).  If you got less than you invested you can deduct a Loss.

 

Did you report the 1099R on your tax return?  It should show up on 2018 1040 line 4b as taxable.  Or didn't you report the 1099B?
