There is no place under deductions and credits to indicate that your early IRA withdrawal was for covid related circumstances. Where can I indicate this?

[rjs]

The tax return that you are preparing now is for 2019. You could not have made a Covid-19-related IRA withdrawal in 2019. The special provisions for IRA withdrawals for Covid-19 apply only to withdrawals made in 2020. If you made an early IRA withdrawal in 2020 because of circumstances related to Covid-19, you will indicate that on your 2020 tax return, that you file in 2021.

What are the rules for 2020 Covid-19 withdrawal?

Or where can I find them.

Thank you for the link.

I had gone to IRS site and had looked several days ago, but guess I did not look hard enough.

Thanks again!
