Tax Year Prior to 2020: Thrift Savings Plan -Distribution Source

mesheedy · ‎January 29, 2020

I had a distribution from my 401K (Thrift Savings Plan- Fed employee) in 2018. I am filling in the details from my 1099-R and TurboTax is asking me the source of the distribution. I am not sure what to select. Can someone clarify this for me? Thanks

Did you enter the code in Box 7 of the 1099 R? Go and make sure a code is entered in box 7 of the 1099 R.

Yes, normal distribution -code 7 is filled in.

Did you answer the question on whether it's a IRA/SEP/SIMPLE? If it's normal distribution the box will probably be unchecked.
