How can I enter dividend income by date?

[JohnB5677]

The form 1099-DIV is generic to the year, and does not have a date associated with it.

• The IRS will assume the dividends were distributed evenly though the year.
• If dividends were distributed very late in the year, and you had an under payment penalty
  • You may use the Annualized income method
  • This is form 2210

 Select Tax Tools

• You may have to minimize both the Federal and State options by clicking the Down Arrows on the Sidebar.
• You will then clearly see Tax Tools
• Click the arrow to up to see additional options

1. Once you can work on Tax Tools
2. On the drop-down select Tools
3. There will be 3 or 4 green boxes
4. Select Topics Search
5. Type 2210
6. Continue through the interview.
