I'm a substitute teacher in WA & I paid 12 years of back pay into my TRS 401a using after-tax funds. Can I deduct this & if so, how?

This is a 401A investment account.

No. If you bought retirement credits with after-tax money, then a portion of your retirement benefit will be non-taxable to account for this. The plan payer will indicate this on your 1099-R when you begin withdrawing funds.

For a Brazilian pension, I used a substitute 1099R and deducted the taxes paid in Brazil from the gross amount. Is this all I can do in Turbo Tax or can I use a 1116 frm?
