Frequently Asked Questions

The best 1099-R software for pension plans handles high-volume distribution reporting with proper code selection and taxable amount calculation. BoomTax provides comprehensive pension 1099-R filing with bulk processing and IRS e-filing.

Most pension distributions use Code 7 for normal retirement distributions. Other common codes include Code 2 (early distribution with exception), Code 3 (disability), and Code 4 (death benefits). BoomTax helps select the correct code for each distribution type.

When retirees made after-tax contributions to their pension, a portion of each distribution is non-taxable. BoomTax calculates the taxable amount (Box 2a) based on the exclusion ratio and tracks employee contributions for accurate reporting.
