The sale of the woodlot can be reported as a capital gain on your Canadian tax return, which is calculated by subtracting the sale price from the adjusted cost base and selling expenses. We recommend that you contact CRA directly at 1-800-959-8281 for further clarification.    Thank you for choosing TurboTax.

The total distribution box is checked on both my rollovers and for taxable amount in box 2a. the amount is “0.00” on both 1099-r’s. I can confirm it does indeed say they are my 1099-r’s and not my husbands. Line 5a is correct with $107,000 which includes the sum of my 2 rollovers and my husband’s distributions he was actively taking, line 5b is incorrect it should be subtracting my 2-rollovers of say $30,000 from the $107,000.00 leaving the taxable amount as $77,000 because that’s the only amount that should be taxable and is the total of my husbands distributions. But instead it’s carrying it right over to line 5b on the 1040 and consequently affecting my state return as well because that’s auto populating the information from the 1040 I think. So I’m getting taxed federally and from state on $30k of money I never received I just rolled over. I did try and amend this return with 2 different turbo tax experts and each time we start in the beginning and go through each section starting from personal and going forward till we get to 1099-R section and have deleted the entries and started brand new and either way it does not change the amounts from what was originally filed. A side by side comparison looks like I made no changes and continues to tax the full amount of distributions. I have also called and am waiting for a call back from the company who issued the 1099R to figure out if something is wrong on the form itself. This issue was escalated on turbo taxes end and I’m waiting to hear back. No one can seem to understand why it’s doing what it’s doing we even (me and TT agent) tried changing things against the 1099-R and it still didn’t make a difference. What gives??? I’m stumped so are they 

If you efiled there should be an Electronic Postmark page saying when you filed and when the IRS accepted it. Probably near the end. That is your proof and signature. If you print out your return to give someone you will have to sign it in ink for them now.

I opened my  2022 program and entered 25,000 1099R.  I put 0 in box 2a and also tried without the zero.  It came out right on 1040 line 5b as 0 with ROLLOVER to the left.   Did you check either box on 2b taxable amount or total distribution?   Oh, by the way,  maybe you opened the 1099R to view or edit it before you filed? If you edit or review a 1099R it does not keep your answers from before but resets them to the defaults. Then you have to go through and answer them all again. So be sure to go all the way to the end of the 1099R section. They are right unless you go back.   Another thing to check that's it entered under your name and not your husband's.   If you want you can take a screen shot of the Form 1099R in forms and block out names and amounts, etc.  and post it here.     Also about line 5.   If the taxable amount on 5b is the same as the gross distribution on 1099R box 1 then it doesn't show the amount on 5a.   5a is not important.   So 5a can be (or should be)  LESS than 5b.  So I'm thinking if you entered them twice  and one was wrong it would show a taxable amount on 5b but not be included in 5a.  Follow?  So it would look like 5b was too much and 5a would still show the right amount.   Did you try starting a new blank test return?  Go up to File-New.  Enter some personal info then enter just your 1099Rs.
