Yes, you need to file Form 5329 (specifically Part II) because you identified the withdrawal as non-qualified.You enter the 1099-Q to report the income (the earnings). Form 5329 is the form that calculates the 10% federal penalty on the earnings.
I entered the information under “Miscellaneous Income” → “ESA and 529 Distributions (Form 1099-Q)” in TurboTax Online. Do I need to fill out Form 5329 separately in TurboTax? If so, which section should I go to to enter the additional tax? Or will TurboTax automatically take care of Form 5329 when filing the federal return?
The program should automatically generate the form 5329 in the background. You can view your tax return and look on Sch 2, line 8 for the 10% penalty along with seeing the form 5329.
The PA 529 allows deductions for contributions so when you take a non-qualified distribution, you must add back the entire amount withdrawn - the principal plus earnings. To add it back, look for 529 Plan distributions and enter the non-qualified portion.
