Taxpayer withdrew 80,000 from Roth IRA, has owned the account for over 5 years and used the total distribution for purchase of a first home. Where do you enter the exclusion? 1099-R has a code J.

Lisa, it is tax free (up to $10,000).

@twisniewski7   It is a few lines under line 19 of the 1099-R worksheet.

How old is the taxpayer?

Which "exclusion" are you referring to?

Taxpayer is 36. Account has been opened over 5 years.  Contributions are not taxed. I read that the withdrawn earnings are both tax- and penalty-free as long as you use them to buy, build, or rebuild a home.

no, not tax free....theres an exception to the penalty for early withdrawal on the first 10k used for for first time homebuyers.

Youre looking for the place to enter the ROTH basis so its not taxable....scroll down the 1099R worksheet you should see a quickzoom button to the ROTH basis worksheet.
