The IRS has posted at its website the 2022 tax year version of Form 1099-R, Distributions From Pensions, Annuities, Retirement or Profit-Sharing Plans, IRAs, Insurance Contracts, etc., and Form 5498, IRA Contribution Information. As the title implies, Form 1099-R is filed by financial organizations and service providers to report to account holders and the IRS distributions from tax-qualified retirement savings arrangements. Form 5498 more narrowly reports IRA-related information, including contributions to IRAs, SEP plans, and SIMPLE IRA plans; end-of-year fair market values; rollovers; conversions; recharacterizations; etc. These forms will be reviewed for any significant changes from the 2021 tax year versions, and findings will be shared as appropriate.
