You must determine that yourself using the instructions on pages 7 through 13 of IRS Pub 590-B or with the help of the plan trustee or administrator.

If you are referring as to whether your distribution is the full amount of your required minimum distribution (RMD), you must check with your plan administrator. Usually, they are distributing the full amount required. The link below will allow you to calculate it if you choose.

• RMD Calculator  and you can use the publication 590-B provided above.

Be sure to enter your required minimum distribution (RMD) for each 1099-R, and do not include the total RMD in only one 1099-R entry. This is what the statement is saying and as indicated, the RMD must be taken for each account. Generally, your plan administrator will automatically calculate this for each account based on your age.

Note: Do not include the RMD for other retirement accounts you my have. RMDs for other accounts should be entered separately.
