    Help-Net Unrealized Appreciation NUA

    It has been awhile when I had a client with NUA (box 6) on a 1099 R, but I got one today.
    Document: Box 1 Gross Distribution x $s
    Box 2a x$ but Less than Box 1 (difference box 6 NUA),
    distribution code 2 - Total Distribution marked in box 2b.
    Question: just to confirm my thoughts, the amount in box 6 the nua is the client's basis in the company stock
    is this a correct assumption?.
    The client has not provided me with a 1099 B, but I will ask as he stated he did a completed liquidation of his 401k.
    I just want confirmation about the $s in box 6 as the basis to use to calculate the stock sales.
    I tried the search feature on this subject bot there was no information.

      See if this helps--from 1099-R instruction

      Box 6. Net Unrealized Appreciation (NUA) in
      Employer's Securities

      Use this box if a distribution from a qualified plan (except
      a qualified distribution from a designated Roth account)
      includes securities of the employer corporation (or a
      subsidiary or parent corporation) and you can compute
      the NUA in the employer's securities. Enter all the NUA in
      employer securities if this is a lump-sum distribution. If this
      is not a lump-sum distribution, enter only the NUA in
      employer securities attributable to employee
      contributions. See Regulations section 1.402(a)-1(b) for
      the determination of the NUA. Also see Notice 89-25, Q/
      A-1, 1989-1 C.B. 662. Include the NUA in box 1 but not in
      box 2a except in the case of a direct rollover to a Roth IRA
      (see Notice 2009-75, Q/A 1). You do not have to complete
      this box for a direct rollover.

        year and the same time liquidating his 401k .
        Gene, thank you for the reference.
