Completely emptied my 401k to rollover to an IRA. My Form 1099-R states my percentage of total distribution is 0.0%; however, TurboTax will not accept 0.0% and requires me to enter and amount between .01% - 100%. Can someone please explain what should be entered? Many thanks!
You'll need to sign in or create an account to connect with an expert.
Let's get the big picture straight. If you can you answer yes to these questions:
Box 1 and box 2, matching numbers since full amount rolled over?
Box 7 has a code G or H or other tax exempt code for the rollover?
then don't bother with the box and percentage on the 1099R.
If you answered no, what do you have?
Box 1 shows the gross distribution. Box 2a shows $0.00 as the Taxable Amount. Box 2b has an "X" in the box for Total Distribution. Box 7 does show code G. Box 9a shows 0% for Your Percentage of Total Distribution.
Leave box 9a blank. The percentage entry is only used when a distribution is made to multiple beneficiaries.
