1099-R
My 21 year old son worked at a place that offered a 401K. He worked there for only about 6 months in 2019 and then moved on to another job. He received a 1099-R that has an amount in box 1 and 2a and the Distribution Code is a 1. I really don't know where the $ went after he left this job. If it rolled into a retirement account or he received a check from T. Rowe. I have no clue. I did include it in Turbo Tax and checked off the "other" box when it asked me what he used the money for. How does this affect anything for him? He didn't make much money in 2019 (he is a full time student too) and somehow didn't have any Fed Tax deducted. Turbo Tax is also asking me to complete form 8615, Tax for Certain Children who have Investment Income. Is this because of the 1099-R form?
