Question

1099-Q Box 2 Empty

On our 1099-Q notification, Box 2 is blank. The state education contract was canceled by us because of unused college credits. Does that mean Box 2 can be considered "zero"? Boxes 1 and 3 have the same amount.

In the TT program do NOT fill in zeros when boxes on the form are blank ... simply leave them blank in the program as well.

If Box 1 and Box 3 are the same amount, there were no earnings in the distribution.
