Client distributed $7,200 from his SEP IRA in 2022 of which $2,400 was return of contributions made in 2022.  1099-R doesn't reflect the return.  How do I reflect the return on the 1040 in Proseries?

    The issuer of that 1099-R issues what they know about = the distribution. They are not going to reflect what got spent vs what got converted vs what got rolled over.

    Read this to see if they qualify:

    https://www.irs.gov/retirement-plans/retirement-plans-faqs-regarding-iras-distributions-withdrawals

    That helps you know how to indicate your taxpayer has a partial rollover (return) that may or may not be subject to the 2 year rule, for instance. Or, other penalty; and basis and taxable amount.
