In 2021 Calpers pension income was overpaid due to the death of the participant.  The overpayment was repaid in 2022.  How to I report the repayment on the 2022 return?  There were no other financial transactions in 2022.

    This is a claim of right repayment. You can only report it in the year you actually repaid the claim.

     

    If your repayment is less than $3,000, you'll claim it as a Miscellaneous itemized deduction in Schedule A.

     

    If the repayment is more than $3,000, please read this TurboTax Help topic on how to make the claim.
