Why am I penalized for early withdrawal when I am 67 years old

So clearly I'm over 59 1/2 why am I penalized 20% for early withdrawal

Where is it telling you that you are being penalized?

 

Are you sure it's not just a 20% tax being applied?  The income is taxable if it is not a ROTH account.

If a penalty is being applied, it would show on Schedule 2, Line 6.....but would be 10% of the distribution for that 1099-R.
