Form 1099-R - Rollover

  • The total distribution will appear on Line 4a.
  • The taxable amount of the distribution will appear on Line 4b.
  • If the total distribution was rolled over, no amount will be reported on Line 4b as taxable.

  • The text "ROLLOVER" will print in the left-hand margin by Line 4a.
  • The total distribution will appear on Line 4a.
  • The taxable amount of the distribution will appear on Line 4b.
