If you indicated you took a Disaster Distribution in 2020, TurboTax asks for info from your 2021 Form 8915.

I did do that but it’s taking the full amount I took out in 2020 and adding it to my income making me in a way higher tax bracket. I divided it over 3 years so it should only add 1/3 to my income not the full amount.

To clarify, what lines do you have filled out on your 2021 Form 8915-F? And is the 2021 Form 8915-F showing correctly 1/3 of the 2020 distribution?
