Good morning, 

I'm sure this has been covered but I can't seem to find it. 

My client liquidated an 18k IRA due to Covid and loss of job. I'm not sure which form/code to use to indicate this. Also, we are in Michigan.

Thank you, Community. 🙂

Michigan may or may not conform to this, you'll have to do some research.....the instructions Ernie gave are for federal only.

Dawn:

 

On the 1099-R form you can designate under the Qualified Disaster section for 2020 Coronvirus distribution and the next 2 lines.  You then have to go to form 8915-E and designate if it is to be paid all in one year or over 3 years.

Thank you, Ernie,

I have looked at 8915-E, but wasn't sure it was the right one. Thank you for clarifying.

Would the distribution codes be 2 - early withdrawal , exception applies?

Cheers,

Dawn
