Trouble with CX getting RMDs to function correct in TT.
One of the issues is matching the amounts to the "R"
One of his distributions included "inkind" distribution. How will this be recorded?
EX: RMD =7500
Dist cash = 6100
Rest was inkind How sould this be recorded?
You could indicate in TurboTax that the required RMD is equal to the Distribution.
Keep documentation for the balance of RMD distribution in-kind. (What was the in-kind received? If cash, needs to be reported as Other Income).
The IRS allows the required annual RMD to be taken over several accounts.
Here's more info in IRS Requirements for RMD's.
