Sounds like the payer decided to save some ink. Yes, the> Qualified Dividends and has this amount in > box 1b. I do not see anything about a box 1a > for Ordinary dividends.

When I place this in just > 1b, I actually get money back. $200 presumably should have appeared in both 1a and 1b -- since dividends can't be Qualified unless they are first paid. So please report the $200 as dividend income (line 9a on Form 1040) and the *same* $200 as *Qualified* dividends on the new line 9b. You will note it is indented, and therefore not added into the totals for the "far right" column. The Qualified Dividend is taxed at a lower rate, and that reduces your taxes due. The calculation is either on the Worksheet for line 41, or on Schedule D.

| I receved my 1099-DIV and it lists say $200 as Qualified Dividends and has this amount in box 1b. I do not see anything about a box 1a for Ordinary dividends. Do I place this $200 in both box 1a and 1b? When I place this in just 1b, I actually get money back. Thanks.
