1-30-11: PBGC pension, taxable portion calculations

When DSRA members receive their 1099-R from the PBGC for pension payments in 2011, they do NOT provide a breakdown into taxable pension payments and non-taxable “return of contribution” payments.  Delphi provided that service with the breakdown on the 1099-R, but the responsibility now rests with the retiree.  Failure to calculate the correct non-taxable and taxable portions of pension payments could result in payment of higher taxes than are actually due.

DSRA has provided a REVISED EMAIL ON 1/30/2011 to all members with assistance on this matter, members should check email for updated information please.
