Retirement tax questions
DMarkM1, your reply is incorrect unless by "take care of the RMD" you mean make return of excess contribution. If the RMD was not distributed from the plan before any of the plan was rolled over to the IRA, the distribution rolled over to the IRA included the RMD from the plan ans is now an excess contribution to the IRA that needs to be removed by return of excess contribution.
Sh19, if the plan issued the RMD before rolling over the remainder, you would have received a separate cod 7 Form 1099-R reporting that distribution. If you did not receive a code 7 Form 1099-R in addition to the code G Form 1099-R, you have an excess contribution in the IRA to resolve before the due date of your tax return, otherwise you'll incur a 6% excess contribution penalty each year that the excess remains in the IRA. TurboTax does not have an explicit way to deal with this distribution error by the plan because less then the amount reported as rolled over was permitted to be rolled over. Unfortunately, by the plan making this distribution error, the amount reported on the code G Form 1099-R does include the RMD from the plan even though it should not have been included in the rollover.
