I took 401k early withdrawal due to Covid in 2020 and filed tax and chose 3 years payments. How do I file the 2nd payment in 2021 tax return?

You will report the second taxable portion of your 2020 coronavirus distribution in the Retirement section under Wages and Income of TurboTax.

However, this section is not yet ready as the IRS has not yet issued instructions for form 8915-F and you'll need to revisit this section later.

Please read this TurboTax Help topic on form 8915-F.

Thanks. Do you know when it will be ready?

[MinhT1]

At this time, we have no information as to when the IRS will release the final form 8915-F.

It is still in draft form as of February 2 on the IRS website.

Thank you for asking this question. I ran up against this same thing, trying to work through my taxes.   Have booked marked this item, hoping to get an update as soon as TurboTax has one.

Yes, please check back for updates.

Once the IRS releases the final instructions and form and TurboTax has updated please use these steps to get the disaster distribution questions in the retirement section:

1. Login to your TurboTax Account 
2. Click on the Search box on the top and type “1099-R”
3. Click on “Jump to 1099-R”
4. If you do not have any 2021 1099-R answer "No" to "Did you get a 1099-R in 2021?" (If you have any other 1099-R then enter all 1099-R and after entering your last 1099-R click "Continue" on the “Review your 1099-R info” screen)
5. Answer "Yes" to the "Have you ever taken a disaster distribution before 2021?" screen

Here's the link to the IRS website. Please look for the latest update there.

IRS Form 8915-F

[nguy1656-gmail-c]

When will TurboTax update so we can file the tax?

[MarilynG1]

Form 8915-F for reporting your second distribution of your Covid-related distribution from 2020 will be available by 03/31/2022.

Click this link for a listing of Federal Tax Form Availability.

[nguy1656]

Why does it take so long? Federal tax due date is April 15, but the form will be available on 3/31/2022? That means a lot people can’t file tax now. Correct?

Does TurboTax have an update on this?
