Not calculating a second distribution as a Care Act distribution and just showing as a distribution in first column of 8915E but not calculating and showing in the Cares Act total in line 2 of 8915E.
You'll need to sign in or create an account to connect with an expert.
To clarify, do you get to the screen that asks "Do you want to pay all the taxes this year?" and it says "...you only have to pay tax on 1/3 of $xxxx..." ? Do you have an amount on that screen?
What is in the code in box 7?
Second distribution is from Roth so not taxed, but never gives screen for second distribution being as covid distribution or never includes it in the amount it shows for total covid distribution.
It should not be included in taxable covid but should still be included as total of all covid distributions.
To clarify, you do not get any COVID questions for the second distribution, correct?
Is this from a Roth IRA? Did you withdraw more than your contribution (= withdraw any earnings)? Or are you over 59 1/2 and all of your distributions are qualified distributions and therefore not taxable? If none of the distribution is taxable then it won't be included as a COVID distribution.
Or is this from a designated Roth account and is the code in box 7 "B1"? If yes then then please follow these workaround steps from user dmertz as discussed in 1099R Coronavirus Exception Issue:
You can choose to have the distribution taxed over 2020, 2021, and 2022 instead of only in 2020. You’ll have three years to pay back the funds you withdrew, without the amount impacting that year’s cap on contributions. If you pay back the amount within that time, you’ll be able to claim a refund on those taxes paid when you file an amended tax return. Please see IRS Coronavirus-related relief for retirement plans and IRAs for more details.
If this doesn't help then please let me know what code you have in box 7. What is in box 1 and 2? IRA/SEP/SIMPLE checked?
The Roth withdrawal is not taxable but want to declare as a covid withdrawal so I can pay it back into a Roth account in the next 3 years
