Instructions for Recipient

Generally, distributions from retirement plans (IRAs, qualified plans,
section 403(b) plans, and governmental section 457(b) plans),
insurance contracts, etc., are reported to recipients on Form 1099-R.
Qualified plans and section 403(b) plans. If your annuity starting
date is after 1997, you must use the simplified method to figure your
taxable amount if your payer didn’t show the taxable amount in box
2a. See the instructions for your tax return.
IRAs. For distributions from a traditional individual retirement
arrangement (IRA), simplified employee pension (SEP), or savings
incentive match plan for employees (SIMPLE), generally the payer isn’t
required to compute the taxable amount. See the instructions for your
tax return to determine the taxable amount. If you’re at least age 72,
you must take minimum distributions from your IRA (other than a Roth
IRA). If you don’t, you’re subject to a 50% excise tax on the amount
that should’ve been distributed. See Pub. 590-A and Pub. 590-B for
more information on IRAs.
Roth IRAs. For distributions from a Roth IRA, generally the payer isn’t
required to compute the taxable amount. You must compute any
taxable amount on Form 8606. An amount shown in box 2a may be
taxable earnings on an excess contribution.
Loans treated as distributions. If you borrow money from a qualified
plan, section 403(b) plan, or governmental section 457(b) plan, you
may have to treat the loan as a distribution and include all or part of
the amount borrowed in your income. There are exceptions to this
rule. If your loan is taxable, code L will be shown in box 7. See Pub.
575.
Recipient’s taxpayer identification number (TIN). For your
protection, this form may show only the last four digits of your TIN
(SSN, ITIN, ATIN, or EIN). However, the payer has reported your
complete TIN to the IRS.
Account number. May show an account, policy, or other unique
number the payer assigned to distinguish your account.
Box 1. Shows the total amount distributed this year. The amount may
have been a direct rollover, a transfer or conversion to a Roth IRA, a
recharacterized IRA contribution; or you may have received it

as periodic payments, nonperiodic payments, or a total distribution.
Report the amount on Form 1040, 1040-SR, or 1040-NR on the line
for “IRA distributions” or “Pensions and annuities” (or the line for
“Taxable amount”) and on Form 8606, as applicable. However, if this
is a lump-sum distribution, see Form 4972. If you haven’t reached
minimum retirement age, report your disability payments on the line
for “Wages, salaries, tips, etc.” on your tax return. Also report on that
line permissible withdrawals from eligible automatic contribution
arrangements and corrective distributions of excess deferrals, excess
contributions, or excess aggregate contributions except if the
distribution is of designated Roth contributions or your after-tax
contributions or if you’re self-employed.
If a life insurance, annuity, qualified long-term care, or endowment
contract was transferred tax free to another trustee or contract issuer,
an amount will be shown in this box and code 6 will be shown in box
7. If a charge or payment was made against the cash value of an
annuity contract or the cash surrender value of a life insurance
contract for the purchase of qualified long-term care insurance, an
amount will be shown in this box and code W will be shown in box 7.
You need not report these amounts on your tax return. If code C is
shown in box 7, the amount shown in box 1 is a receipt of reportable
death benefits that is taxable in part.
Box 2a. This part of the distribution is generally taxable. If there is no
entry in this box, the payer may not have all the facts needed to figure
the taxable amount. In that case, the first box in box 2b should be
checked. You may want to get one of the free publications from the
IRS to help you figure the taxable amount. See Additional information
on the back of Copy 2. For an IRA distribution, see IRAs and Roth
IRAs, earlier. For a direct rollover, other than from a qualified plan,
section 403(b) plan, or governmental section 457(b) plan to a
designated Roth account in the same plan or to a Roth IRA, zero
should be shown and you must enter zero (-0-) on the “Taxable
amount” line of your tax return. If you roll over a distribution (other
than a distribution from a designated Roth account) from a qualified
plan, section 403(b) plan, or governmental section 457(b) plan to a
designated Roth account in the same plan or to a Roth IRA, you must

Instructions for Recipient (continued)

include on the “Taxable amount” line of your tax return the amount
shown in this box plus the amount in box 6, if any.
If this is a total distribution from a qualified plan and you were born
before January 2, 1936 (or you’re the beneficiary of someone born
before January 2, 1936), you may be eligible for the 10-year tax
option. See the Form 4972 instructions for more information.
If you’re an eligible retired public safety officer who elected to
exclude from income distributions from your eligible plan used to pay
certain insurance premiums, the amount shown in box 2a hasn’t been
reduced by the exclusion amount. See the instructions for your tax
return for more information.
Box 2b. If the first box is checked, the payer was unable to determine
the taxable amount and box 2a should be blank, except for an IRA.
It’s your responsibility to determine the taxable amount. If the second
box is checked, the distribution was a total distribution that closed out
your account.
Box 3. If you received a lump-sum distribution from a qualified plan
and were born before January 2, 1936 (or you’re the beneficiary of
someone born before January 2, 1936), you may be able to elect to
treat this amount as a capital gain on Form 4972 (not on Schedule D
(Form 1040)). See the Form 4972 instructions. For a charitable gift
annuity, report as a long-term capital gain as explained in the
Instructions for Form 8949.
Box 4. Shows federal income tax withheld. Include this amount on
your income tax return as tax withheld, and if box 4 shows an amount
(other than zero), attach Copy B to your return. Generally, if you
receive payments that aren’t eligible rollover distributions, you can
change your withholding or elect not to have income tax withheld by
giving the payer Form W-4P.
Box 5. Generally, this shows the employee’s investment in the
contract (after-tax contributions), if any, recovered tax free this year;
the portion that’s your basis in a designated Roth account; the part of
premiums paid on commercial annuities or insurance contracts
recovered tax free; the nontaxable part of a charitable gift annuity; or
the investment in a life insurance contract reportable under section
6050Y. This box doesn’t show any IRA contributions. If the amount
shown is your basis in a designated Roth account, the year you first
made contributions to that account may be entered in box 11.

Box 6. If you received a lump-sum distribution from a qualified plan
that includes securities of the employer’s company, the net unrealized
appreciation (NUA) (any increase in value of such securities while in
the trust) is taxed only when you sell the securities unless you choose
to include it in your gross income this year. See Pub. 575 and
Form 4972. If you roll over the distribution to a designated Roth
account in the same plan or to a Roth IRA, see the instructions for box
2a. For a direct rollover to a designated Roth account in the same plan
or to a Roth IRA, the NUA is included in box 2a. If you didn’t receive a
lump-sum distribution, the amount shown is the NUA attributable to
employee contributions, which isn’t taxed until you sell the securities.
Box 7. The following codes identify the distribution you received. For
more information on these distributions, see the instructions for your
tax return. Also, certain distributions may be subject to an additional
10% tax. See the Instructions for Form 5329.
1—Early distribution, no known exception (in most cases, under age
59½).
2—Early distribution, exception applies (under age 59½).
3—Disability.
4—Death.
5—Prohibited transaction.
6—Section 1035 exchange (a tax-free exchange of life insurance,
annuity, qualified long-term care insurance, or endowment
contracts).
7—Normal distribution.
8—Excess contributions plus earnings/excess deferrals (and/or
earnings) taxable in 2023.
9—Cost of current life insurance protection.
A—May be eligible for 10-year tax option (see Form 4972).
B—Designated Roth account distribution.
Note: If code B is in box 7 and an amount is reported in box 11,
see the Instructions for Form 5329.
C—Reportable death benefits under section 6050Y.
D—Annuity payments from nonqualified annuities that may be subject
to tax under section 1411.
E—Distributions under Employee Plans Compliance Resolution
System (EPCRS).

If the IRA/SEP/SIMPLE box is checked, you’ve received a traditional
IRA, SEP, or SIMPLE distribution.
Box 8. If you received an annuity contract as part of a distribution, the
value of the contract is shown. It isn’t taxable when you receive it and
shouldn’t be included in boxes 1 and 2a. When you receive periodic
payments from the annuity contract, they’re taxable at that time. If the
distribution is made to more than one person, the percentage of the
annuity contract distributed to you is also shown. You’ll need this
information if you use the 10-year tax option (Form 4972). If charges

were made for qualified long-term care insurance contracts under
combined arrangements, the amount of the reduction in the
investment (but not below zero) in the annuity or life insurance
contract is reported here.
Box 9a. If a total distribution was made to more than one person, the
percentage you received is shown.
Box 9b. For a life annuity from a qualified plan or from a section
403(b) plan (with after-tax contributions), an amount may be shown for
the employee’s total investment in the contract. It is used to compute
the taxable part of the distribution. See Pub. 575.
Box 10. If an amount is reported in this box, see the Instructions for
Form 5329 and Pub. 575.
Box 11. The first year you made a contribution to the designated Roth
account reported on this form is shown in this box.

under FATCA. You may also have a filing requirement. See the
Instructions for Form 8938.
Box 13. Shows the date of payment for reportable death benefits
under section 6050Y.
Boxes 14–19. If state or local income tax was withheld from the
distribution, boxes 16 and 19 may show the part of the distribution
subject to state and/or local tax.
