Line 23:
You can withdraw some or all of your excess contributions for 2020 and they will be treated as not having been contributed if:
-
You make the withdrawal by the due date, including extensions, of your 2020 tax return; and
-
You withdraw any earnings on the withdrawn contributions and include the earnings in gross income (see the Instructions for Form 8606 for details). Also, if you hadn’t reached age 59½ at the time of the withdrawal, include the earnings as an early distribution on line 1 of Form 5329 for the year in which you report the earnings.
