Was Box 2B on the 1099-R checked for 'Taxable Amount not Determined'? What was the distribution code(s) in box 7 of the 1099-R?
Thank you for your reply! "Taxable amount not determined" was indeed checked, and the code was "J" - Early distribution. Thanks!
2013. I held it for several months greater then 5 years.
If you work thru the interview screens of the 1099-R, after you have answered the preliminary questions and come to a screen that shows 'My 1099-R Entries', if you select continue, there should be follow up questions that you should answer. Those answers should help you to get the correct result on your 1040 as far as the taxable amount (if any) on the 1040.
Since you are under age 59½, the fact that you've met the 5-year holding period is irrelevant unless you are disabled or have used the money for a first-home purchase. If you are not disabled or using the money for a first-home purchase, the taxable amount of your distribution is determined on Part III of For 8606 by applying your basis in Roth IRA contributions and conversion.
