Retirement tax questions
Yes, of you have not taken any previous distributions, then the amount must be reduced by previous distributions. Note, however, the prior contributions are needed to eliminate (or reduce) any early distribution penalty if you are under age 59 1/2. If 59 1/2 or older, that entry is meaningless since there is no penalty due to age.
