Reporting excess Roth IRA contribution

For tax year 2023 I contributed after-tax dollars to a Roth IRA and later found out that I was not eligible to make this contribution. I reached out to the brokerage company in 2024 and withdrew the contributions along with earnings.  They informed me I would receive a 1099-R in 2025 but I should report the earnings as income and fill out form 5329 for my 2023 return. 

 

How do I create a 1099-R in my 2023 return?

1. Should I enter P and J under Box 7 and indicate "which year on Form 1099-R?" as 2024? 

2. Box 1 and Box 2 as total distribution and earnings

3. Could I leave rest of the boxes blank? 

4. Do I leave "IRA/SIMPLE/SEP box is checked" blank? 

 

Thank you

Reporting excess Roth IRA contribution

based on recent posts, this should work for you. reply back if you see issues.

 

return of excess contribution:

before tax filing date including extension: positive earnings allocable to the excess are taxable on the Line 4b for the year of the contribution.

Negative earnings are ignored; in which case, for purposes of basis, consider the original requested amount as returned.

Thank you. 

 

I have follow up question - how do I generate line 4b on TurboTax system? 

Reporting excess Roth IRA contribution

that's all handled by the tax software as you enter the 1099-R.

 

Did you get back more than you deposited, or less?

If less, 4b will be zero
