Initial RMD

2022 was the first year I was required to take an RMD. I understand that I did not need to take the full RMD until April 1, 2023 so I took some in 2022 and the rest in Jan. 2023.

What is the correct way to enter this information in TurboTax so that I don't get penalized? How should I answer this question, not sure if the second or third choice is the proper answer?

I received all the RMD for 2022

I did not receive all the RMD for 2022

I was not required to take an RMD in 2022

Account holders reaching age 72 in 2022 must take their first RMD by April 1, 2023, and the second RMD by December 31, 2023, and each year thereafter. To be clear. The extension into April is only for the year you turn 72.

You will get a 1099-R for your 2022 distribution. It will be posted to your 2022 tax return. You will get a 1099-R for the balance of the 2022 distribution and the full 2023 distribution to be included on your 2023 tax return. You will not be penalized for this action.

Provided you comply with the April 1st, 2023, distribution requirement you should answer I received all the RMD for 2022.

Following your advice I completed the Federal portion. The Smart Check took me to Form 5329-T, item A, between 53 and 54: "The amount of required distributions ... upon which you request a waiver". Is this what you would expect?

Note the figure is correct, the amount I didn't pay in 2022. I can move on by just adding the explanation but just wanted to get expert feedback before closing this issue.
