Also check box 7, the distribution code. If you are the spouse beneficiary of a qualified retirement plan and have rolled the assets to your own IRA, you will receive a 1099-R reporting this amount under distribution code G4. For the IRA that received the rollover, you will receive a Form 5498, which is issued in May 2015.
