HI;

  I am trying to fill out the US form 1099R for my  CPF (Singapore) distribution. CPF had a top up scheme and I contributed the whole sum from my saving account. (After tax) in the beginning of  2024. In June 2024 I started receiving distribution. Since my CPF account is from my after tax saving account I was filling out the form 1099R. In the form it ask for the TAX ID of the distributor which I cannot get.  And is the 1099R form the correct form. I am using the turbo tax software.

  Thank you for your assistance.

    @KU1212 ,  leave it blank or if TurboTax pesters for a tax id use an obviously dummy one like  12-3456789.  Hopefully that works.

    BTW -- are you a US person living & working in Singapore ?
