I have taken more than the RMD amount each year from my IRA since I was able to start receiving distributions. In prior years a CPA did my taxes so I was out of the loop with this and now I am faced with a question for which I don't know the answer. If I took $7200 in distributions from one of my IRAs and the RMD was $3800, how do I show that in my return? I have identified $7200 in the 1099-R section but in the review it says to only enter the 2024 RMD. Which is it? If I show the $3800, seemingly, I would under report by $3400.
You can enter the 3800 for the RMD. Turbo Tax just wants to know if you took the RMD amount because if you didn’t you owe a penalty. It won’t change the 7200 distribution. Check your 1040 line 4b for the taxable amount.
Before filing, You can preview the 1040 or print the whole return
