You will receive a Form 1099-R in January for the distribution.  Taxes withheld are shown on box 4 of the form.  Enter the tax data from the form into the TurboTax program.  Taxes withheld will be entered as a tax payment on your tax return (just like from a W-2)

To enter a form 1099-R -

  • Click on Federal Taxes (Personal using Home and Business)
  • Click on Wages and Income (Personal Income using Home and Business)
  • Click on I'll choose what I work on (if shown)
  • Scroll down to Retirement Plans and Social Security
  • On IRA, 401(k), Pension Plan Withdrawals (1099-R), click the start or update button

Or enter 1099 r in the Search box located in the upper right of the program screen.  Click on Jump to 1099 r
