What is the name of your state? Georgia
I used to work for a company and managed to participate in their 401K plan. I left the company in 1999 to go back to school. I had to withdraw my 401K plan in 2001 due to financial stress ( I didn't work that year). When they sent me the check, the check indicated that federal tax has been applied. I realized that there's penalty applied for early withdrawal (I'm 33 yrs old). The gross amount was $13,000 minus fed.tax $2200. I failed to report this on my 2002 tax return, but plan to do it this year. What form should I use, and how do I calculate the taxes due on it? My financial situation is still pretty bad. I can't afford hiring someone to do my taxes. Please help....
