Retirement tax questions

I inherited a Roth IRA from my father.  I took a gross distribution of all the funds, the 1099R is stating that @$7K is taxable.  The distribution code on the 1099R is 4D. 


A code "4D" indicates that it is NOT a Roth IRA but is a non-qualified annuity.    (if an inherited Roth IRA the box 7 code would be a "T". )

 

You should contact the issuer of the 1099-R to find out jut what type of account this actually is or if there is an error on the 1099-R which they must correct with a replacement 1099-R.
