DW inherited her share of her aunts IRA (her brothers also received their shares) as the aunt passed away last year. DW took a total distribution of her share and had tax withheld which was reflected on the 1099R that she just received. We entered the distribution, taxes and code for death and reflected checked box for total distribution in Turbo Tax (TT). Now TT is asking the following questions:
Was this withdrawal an RMD?
check either: Yes, some or all was an RMD or No, none of this distribution was an RMD.
If answering yes to the above, TT asks Tell us how much of $distribution DW received applied to the RMD that was taken out:
check either: All of this distribution was an RMD or Part of this distribution was an RMD.
If you indicate part, TT wants you to enter how much received applies to the RMD?
I am really confused by this since DW elected to take a total distribution, so RMDs do not even seem to be applicable. Does anyone have experience in how to answer for this situation? I may have to call the Bank to find out what part of distribution was an RMD, but it still seems irrelevant given she received a total distribution and paid tax on the total.
