Colleen purchased an annuity on January 1, 2019 for the amount of $10,000. The selling agent advised her that she would receive a total of $200 per month for a total of $24,000 based on her life expectancy. What amount may colleen EXCLUDE (if any) from her 2019 income?
If an annuity is funded with money on which no taxes have been previously paid, then it’s considered a qualified annuity. Typically, these annuities are funded with money from 401(k)s or other tax-deferred retirement accounts, such as IRAs.
When you receive payments from a qualified annuity, those payments are fully taxable as income. That’s because no taxes have been paid on that money. But annuities purchased with a Roth IRA or Roth 401(k) are completely tax free if certain requirements are met.
Assuming that, Colleen as purchased the annuity for qualified annuity. Hence an amount of Annuity purchase $10,000 is exclude from 2019 income.
