Do you have a TurboTax Online account?

We'll help you get started or pick up where you left off.

My employer marked the distribution code on my 1099-R as a 1 but it is actually a loan I am paying back over 5 years. Would that not be considered a code L &not taxable?

Sorry a code L

It sounds like your employer considered the money a distribution - you'll want to contact them and follow up. I would suggest filing an extension to give you more time to address this - you can go to
