How do i figure out my basis of retirement income

[lstrubel]

It is asking for the basis of the retirement income for my state farm.  I'm not sure where to find that for the State Tax.

Unless you made non-deductible (i.e. after-tax) contributions to this retirement plan, your basis in the retirement plan is "0". 

In the vast majority of private retirement plans, contributions are made with "pre-tax" contributions - deducted from your pay before calculating your taxable income.
