Pension and Annuity Information

This section is used to indicate to UltraTax CS which method on the New Jersey Pension Taxability Worksheet is to be used to calculate the taxable portion of the distribution entered in this input screen.
Pension code
The entry in the federal column transfers from the federal 1099R screen New Jersey allows for the general rule worksheet calculation, therefore, an entry made for the general or simplified method at the federal level is used to calculate the general rule for New Jersey purposes. If
1
or
2
is entered in this field, entries in the
Investment or cost in contract, Expected return
and
Investment recovered in the past
fields are necessary to complete the calculation on the New Jersey Pension Taxability Worksheet. If amounts were entered in this screen in a prior year, amounts from the prior year Pension Taxability Worksheet will proforma into the New Jersey column. Any changes should be made in the New Jersey column for calculations on the current year Pension Taxability Worksheet. A diagnostic message informs you that more data entry may be needed if the simplified method was used at the federal level. New Jersey still allows the 3 year rule calculation method in certain circumstances. Enter
3
to have the taxable portion of the distribution calculated using the 3 year rule. If
3
is entered in this field, entries in the
Investment or cost in contract, First periodic payment amount,
and
Investment recovered in the past
fields are necessary to complete the calculation on the New Jersey Pension Taxability Worksheet. If there are no amounts in this section or in the New Jersey forced taxable amount, then the taxable amount calculated on Form NJ-1040NR is limited to the federal taxable amount.
First monthly periodic payment
Enter an amount to complete the 3 year rule calculation on the New Jersey Pension Taxability Worksheet. The entry in this field is multiplied by 36 to determine the amount of pension received during the 1st 3 years.

IRA Current Year Distributions and Contributions

Use this section to enter information needed to calculate the New Jersey basis for IRAs and the taxability of current year IRA distributions. The entries transfer to the New Jersey IRA Withdrawals Worksheet for either the taxpayer or the spouse, depending on the entries.
Don't use this section to enter information if the taxpayer's IRA distribution doesn't have basis in New Jersey. The full amount of the IRA distribution is taxed at the New Jersey level.
IRA value at year end including rollovers
This field is used for the Calculation of IRA Withdrawal Taxability per the Publication GIT-2 Worksheets. The amount will proforma from year to year after the 1st year of withdrawal. Once withdrawals start, the worksheet must be calculated each year for this to work. If you have 0 withdrawal in a current year, then you need to enter a 0 in the
2025
distribution (Force)
field to calculate the value of the IRA to carryover to the next year.
note
Once you start taking withdrawals from a specific IRA account the 1099-R input screen at the federal level and state level shouldn't be deleted until the account is closed and the final amount withdrawn. Deleting the federal screen and not the state screen will cause the units of 1099-R to misalign and your IRA data won't proforma properly.
2025
distributions (Force) (Enter zero to calculate worksheet when no
2025
distributions)
This field is used to force the distribution amount for the IRA distribution. Force the distribution to 0 to cause the worksheet to calculate when no distribution made in 1 year to cause the IRA values to calculate for proforma to the next year.
2025
