Railroad benefits


📚 What This Guide Covers

In this article, you’ll learn how to address: Railroad benefits.

⚠️ Before You Begin

Before you make changes, make sure you understand what form/year worksheet your client is working in.

📊 Step-by-Step Guide

The United States Railroad Retirement Board issues a Form RRB to report non-Social-Security-equivalent (NSSEB) benefits (balance of tier 1 benefits that are treated as an amount received from a qualified employee plan); any tier 2 benefit, vested dual benefit (VDB), and supplemental annuity benefit. For tax purposes, all of these are treated as an amount received from a qualified employee plan.

In most cases, the distribution reported on the RRB-1099-R can be entered on the 1099-R form in Sure-Fire. However, there may be some information for which there is no place on the 1099-R. For instance, if there is an amount in Box 8-Repayment, refer to the IRS instructions, and also to help provided by the RRB at a nearby office or on the Internet at www.rrb.gov
