In 2016 I took a loan from my Roth IRA and repaid within the 60 day window.  I received a 1099 on the distribution from the IRA.  How do I enter the repayment?

Best answer by MichaelL1

You are going to enter the 1099R, and then the questions that follow will ask if it was rolled over or returned to the same account and you will mark that box and then it will ask if all or some of it was, and you will say "all" if that is the case in your situation.

If all was returned within the 60 days, it will be a non-taxable event on the return.

To report it do as follows:

To enter pension and annuity Payments (1099-R)

  • Click on Federal Taxes 
  • Click on Wages and Income 
  • Click on I'll choose what I work on (if shown)
  • Scroll down to Retirement Plans and Social Security
  • On IRA, 401(k), Pension Plan Withdrawals (1099-R), click the start or update button
