My 1099-R is for Spousal Support from my former husband's military retirement account. I don't see a place to enter it under spousal support, and it is not my retirement.

If DFAS reported it to you on a Form 1099-R, it may not be "your" retirement, but you will have to report it in the 1099-R interview of Retirement income and Social Security.

It won't be taxed any differently than spousal support (alimony), but the IRS got a copy of the 1099-R from DFAS and will want to see it reported (as a 1099-R) on your tax return.

why does tt include that for calculating eic income when the irs website clearly states that it's not to be included?
