8915-E from 2020 was the form I used to address a 401K withdrawal, I understand that form is 8915-F for 2021 but how do I get this form to populate?

I did not get a 1099R for 2021, this was done in 2020

Review the steps and see the images below. The following steps should be used to enter your COVID qualifying distribution.  Do Not enter a FEMA code because this doesn't have one. You must have your Form 8915-E from your 2020 tax return.

1. Wages & Income > Retirement Plans and Social Security > 
2. IRA, 401(k), Pension Plan Withdrawals (1099-R) >  Start, Revisit or Update > Continue
3. Answer Yes  'Have you ever taken a disaster distribution before 2021?
4. Answer Yes, You had a 2020 Qualified Disaster Distribution
5. Complete the Information using your 2020 Tax return > Continue  (use either section but not both (Pension or IRA depending on your situation)
6. Enter any amount you may have  repaid in 2021, if applicable
7. Finish the entry for your spouse if applicable or just click Continue
8. Complete any additional retirement questions as you move through this section
9. Continue until you have finished and returned back to the Wages & Income Screen.
10. Do NOT stop and change sections without completing it.

If the 2020 distribution was from an account that was Not an IRA

• 2020 Form 8915E Line 9 - Enter 1/3 of the amount from the 2020 distribution in both boxes for Line 9

If the 2020 distribution was from an IRA account

• 2020 Form 8915E Line 17 -  Enter 1/3 of the amount from the 2020 distribution in both boxes for Line 17

Do not enter anything in the other boxes, leave them blank (empty).
