1099-R Form Filing Support

Form 1099-R is used to account for payments and distributions made from pensions, annuities, insurance contracts, IRAs and other retirement plans. Profit-sharing plans also fall under the purview of this form. It is important to know that this form has a low financial threshold for filing. Unlike other 1099 forms that do not become a requirement until the distribution hits a $600 threshold, any payments of $10 or more apply to a 1099-R form filing. Insurance contracts can be from any number of sources, including total disability payments and charitable gift annuities.

You can find basic instructions for the 1099-r form here. As with many types of 1099 forms, this is one of the areas of the tax code that can see changes from time to time. To check for the latest rules and developments, check the IRS website.
