Where do I enter the tax paid on my rmd

Enter your 1099-R exactly how it shows. Where do I enter a 1099-R? Any tax withholding in Boxes 4, 14, or 17 will be applied to your tax return(s). Make sure to answer the follow up questions. TurboTax will enter generate any and all necessary forms to report the distribution and tax payments.

When you enter the 1099R it goes in box 4. Go back and check your 1099R entries.

You didn’t actually pay the tax or the 10% penalty (you pay a 10% early withdrawal penalty if you are under 59 ½). You had taxes withheld like from your paycheck. You still have to enter the whole gross amount (before taxes were withheld) with your other income to figure out the total tax (and it may put you into a higher tax bracket) and then the withholding is subtracted from the total tax to figure your refund or tax due. The Gross amount shows up on 1040 line 4a or 5a and the taxable amount on 4b/5b. You will get credit for the withholding on 1040 line 25b.
