IRS 1040 tax form

Public Comments

1. 1099R is a statement that you would recieve from a bank or another source of income other than your employer showing how much interest or money you recieved or earned .
2. The other poster is incorrect. A 1099-R is received from a financial institution who has paid a pension/IRA distribution. Their should be a Box 1: Total Distribution and Box 2: Taxable Distribution. As to how much of that amount is taxable would depend on your individual circumstances. If you need more help with that form, try posting another question with more specifics.
