Other Retirement Income

There are a few other issues related to reporting retirement income that you may encounter. Some of the following distributions are subject to various additional taxes that are computed on Form 5329, Additional Taxes on Qualified Plans (Including IRAs) and Other Tax-Favored Accounts. If certain exceptions are met, the additional tax on early distributions does not apply.

Only the exceptions for early distributions not subject to the additional tax (Part I of the Form 5329) are included in scope for the VITA/TCE training. Refer taxpayers who must complete other information on Form 5329 to a professional tax preparer. Form 5329 and exceptions are covered in the lesson, Other Taxes.
