IRS DRT will be back for 2018-2019 ... with some changes

[austinpop]

…the applicant or parent will be required to answer a new question about whether or not that amount includes a rollover. If the applicant or parent answers “yes,” he/she will be required to provide the amount of the rollover in a new entry field. Our system will then subtract the user-reported rollover amount from the amount of the IRA or Pension distribution that was transferred from the IRS, and the result will be used in the calculation of the applicant’s expected family contribution (EFC).

I ran afoul of this, as I reported in the other thread:

What is insidious about this change is that if you get it wrong the first time, that check box is no longer available when you go to make corrections.

Our only recourse now is to ask DD’s OFA to make the corrections.
