According to the IRS, all or some portion of the amounts you receive may be taxable unless the payment is a qualified distribution from a designated Roth account. The simplest way to check on what portion is taxable is through your 1099-R. You’ll receive this every year that you take a distribution.
Box 2a shows the taxable amount of your distribution.
Box 2b
If the total distribution box is checked, you may qualify for special elections that may lower your tax.
If the taxable amount is not determined box is checked, this means the payer doesn’t know how much is taxable.
Box 7 shows the specific type of distribution you received and whether you need to pay a 10% penalty on early distribution.
