Example 1. You were eligible for qualified 2021
disaster distributions for the following disasters. Disaster

(DR-4606-LA) (which began May 17, 2021). Disaster 2:
Louisiana Hurricane IDA (DR-4611-LA) (which began
August 26, 2021). Qualified disaster distributions can be
made from May 17, 2021, through June 26, 2023, for
Disaster 1 and August 26, 2021, through June 26, 2023,
for Disaster 2. In 2022, you received a traditional IRA
distribution of $30,000. The distribution was made on April
30. You had no distributions for 2021 and no other
distribution for 2022. You complete Worksheet 2. You
apply the distributions up to the $22,000 limit against each
available disaster. You apply $22,000 of the April 30
distribution to Disaster 1 and $8,000 of the April 30

     1 You do not need to use Worksheet 1B if you checked 
     2020 in item B of this year's Form 8915-F.
     • If you checked the same year in both item A and 
     item B on this year's Form 8915-F, enter -0- for each 
     listed Disaster in column X.
     • If you did not enter in item C of a prior year's Form 
     8915-F any of the disasters listed in the table at the top 
     of Part I of this year's Form 8915-F, enter -0- for each 
     listed Disaster in column X.
     • If you only entered one disaster in the table at the 
     top of Part I of this year's Form 8915-F and that was 
     the only disaster you listed in item C of the prior year's 
     Form 8915-F, enter the amount from line 6 of the prior 
     year's Form 8915-F.
     • For each Disaster listed in the table at the top of 
     Part I of this year's Form 8915-F that was not listed in 
     item C on a Form 8915-F for a prior year, enter -0- in 
     column (X).
     • If you listed two or more disasters in the table at the 
     top of Part I of this year's Form 8915-F and you filed a 
     Form 8915-F for a prior year on which you listed in 
     item C some or all of those disasters, enter in column 
     (X) the amounts from line 5 in column (X) of the prior 
     year's Worksheet 1B. If you did not use Worksheet 1B 
     in that prior year, allocate the amount from line 6 of 
     that prior year's Form 8915-F among the Disasters on 
     line 1 of this worksheet using any reasonable method, 
     except if all of the disasters listed on the prior year's 
     Form 8915-F are not listed on this year’s table at the 
     top of Part I. In the latter case, allocate the amount on 
     line 6 of that prior year's Form 8915-F first to the 
     disasters not listed in the table at the top of Part I of 
     this year's Form 8915-F, and allocate any remaining 
     amount among the Disasters on line 1 of this 
     Worksheet 1B using any reasonable method. 
      
     Note. If the amount on line 1 of this worksheet is 
     $22,000 or more for a disaster, you cannot have 
     qualified disaster distributions in this year for that 
     disaster. Remove that disaster from the list at the 
     top of Part I on page 1 of this year's Form 8915-F 
     and exclude it from your calculations for Part I of 
     this year's Form 8915-F.                                                                                                                                                                                                                  -0-      -0-                                              -0-

     1 You do not need to use Worksheet 1B if you checked 
     2020 in item B of this year's Form 8915-F.
     • If you checked the same year in both item A and 
     item B on this year's Form 8915-F, enter -0- for each 
     listed Disaster in column X.
     • If you did not enter in item C of a prior year's Form 
     8915-F any of the disasters listed in the table at the 
     top of Part I of this year's Form 8915-F, enter -0- for 
     each listed Disaster in column X.
     • If you only entered one disaster in the table at the 
     top of Part I of this year's Form 8915-F and that was 
     the only disaster you listed in item C of the prior year's 
     Form 8915-F, enter the amount from line 6 of the prior 
     year's Form 8915-F.
     • For each Disaster listed in the table at the top of 
     Part I of this year's Form 8915-F that was not listed in 
     item C on a Form 8915-F for a prior year, enter -0- in 
     column (X).
     • If you listed two or more disasters in the table at 
     the top of Part I of this year's Form 8915-F and you 
     filed a Form 8915-F for a prior year on which you 
     listed in item C some or all of those disasters, enter in 
     column (X) the amounts from line 5 in column (X) of 
     the prior year's Worksheet 1B. If you did not use 
     Worksheet 1B in that prior year, allocate the amount 
     from line 6 of that prior year's Form 8915-F among the 
     Disasters on line 1 of this worksheet using any 
     reasonable method, except if all of the disasters listed 
     on the prior year's Form 8915-F are not listed on this 
     year’s table at the top of Part I. In the latter case, 
     allocate the amount on line 6 of that prior year's Form 
     8915-F first to the disasters not listed in the table at 
     the top of Part I of this year's Form 8915-F, and 
     allocate any remaining amount among the Disasters 
     on line 1 of this Worksheet 1B using any reasonable 
     method. 
      
     Note. If the amount on line 1 of this worksheet is

     1 You do not need to use Worksheet 1B if you checked 
     2020 in item B of this year's Form 8915-F.
     • If you checked the same year in both item A and 
     item B on this year's Form 8915-F, enter -0- for each 
     listed Disaster in column X.
     • If you did not enter in item C of a prior year's Form 
     8915-F any of the disasters listed in the table at the 
     top of Part I of this year's Form 8915-F, enter -0- for 
     each listed Disaster in column X.
     • If you only entered one disaster in the table at the 
     top of Part I of this year's Form 8915-F and that was 
     the only disaster you listed in item C of the prior year's 
     Form 8915-F, enter the amount from line 6 of the prior 
     year's Form 8915-F.
     • For each Disaster listed in the table at the top of 
     Part I of this year's Form 8915-F that was not listed in 
     item C on a Form 8915-F for a prior year, enter -0- in 
     column (X).
     • If you listed two or more disasters in the table at 
     the top of Part I of this year's Form 8915-F and you 
     filed a Form 8915-F for a prior year on which you 
     listed in item C some or all of those disasters, enter in 
     column (X) the amounts from line 5 in column (X) of 
     the prior year's Worksheet 1B. If you did not use 
     Worksheet 1B in that prior year, allocate the amount 
     from line 6 of that prior year's Form 8915-F among the 
     Disasters on line 1 of this worksheet using any 
     reasonable method, except if all of the disasters listed 
     on the prior year's Form 8915-F are not listed on this 
     year’s table at the top of Part I. In the latter case, 
     allocate the amount on line 6 of that prior year's Form 
     8915-F first to the disasters not listed in the table at 
     the top of Part I of this year's Form 8915-F, and 
     allocate any remaining amount among the Disasters 
     on line 1 of this Worksheet 1B using any reasonable 
     method. 
      
     Note. If the amount on line 1 of this worksheet is 
     $22,000 or more for a disaster, you cannot have 
     qualified disaster distributions in this year for that 
     disaster. Remove that disaster from the list at the 
     top of Part I on page 1 of this year's Form 8915-F 
     and exclude it from your calculations for Part I of 
     this year's Form 8915-F.                                                                                                                                                                                                                    -0-             -0-                                     -0-

     1 You do not need to use Worksheet 1B if you checked 
     2020 in item B of this year's Form 8915-F.
     • If you checked the same year in both item A and 
     item B on this year's Form 8915-F, enter -0- for each 
     listed Disaster in column X.
     • If you did not enter in item C of a prior year's Form 
     8915-F any of the disasters listed in the table at the top 
     of Part I of this year's Form 8915-F, enter -0- for each 
     listed Disaster in column X.
     • If you only entered one disaster in the table at the 
     top of Part I of this year's Form 8915-F and that was 
     the only disaster you listed in item C of the prior year's 
     Form 8915-F, enter the amount from line 6 of the prior 
     year's Form 8915-F.
     • For each Disaster listed in the table at the top of 
     Part I of this year's Form 8915-F that was not listed in 
     item C on a Form 8915-F for a prior year, enter -0- in 
     column (X).
     • If you listed two or more disasters in the table at the 
     top of Part I of this year's Form 8915-F and you filed a 
     Form 8915-F for a prior year on which you listed in 
     item C some or all of those disasters, enter in column 
     (X) the amounts from line 5 in column (X) of the prior 
     year's Worksheet 1B. If you did not use Worksheet 1B 
     in that prior year, allocate the amount from line 6 of 
     that prior year's Form 8915-F among the Disasters on 
     line 1 of this worksheet using any reasonable method, 
     except if all of the disasters listed on the prior year's 
     Form 8915-F are not listed on this year’s table at the 
     top of Part I. In the latter case, allocate the amount on 
     line 6 of that prior year's Form 8915-F first to the 
     disasters not listed in the table at the top of Part I of 
     this year's Form 8915-F, and allocate any remaining 
     amount among the Disasters on line 1 of this 
     Worksheet 1B using any reasonable method. 
      
     Note. If the amount on line 1 of this worksheet is 
     $22,000 or more for a disaster, you cannot have 
     qualified disaster distributions in this year for that 
     disaster. Remove that disaster from the list at the 
     top of Part I on page 1 of this year's Form 8915-F 
     and exclude it from your calculations for Part I of 
     this year's Form 8915-F.
