Most retirement plan distributions are subject to income tax and may be subject to an additional 10% tax. Generally, the amounts an individual withdraws from an IRA or retirement plan before reaching age 59½ are called "early" or "premature" distributions. Individuals must pay an additional 10% early withdrawal tax unless an exception applies. Use Form 5329 to report distributions subject to the 10% additional tax on early distributions from a qualified retirement plan, including traditional IRAs. If you received a distribution that meets an exception, but box 7 on Form 1099-R doesn’t show an exception, use Form 5329 to indicate the correct exception.
