    IntroductionThis publication gives you the information you need todetermine the tax treatment of your pension and annuityincome under the General Rule. Generally, each of yourmonthly annuity payments is made up of two parts: thetax-free part that is a return of your net cost, and thetaxable balance.

    What is the General Rule. The General Rule is one of thetwo methods used to figure the tax-free part of each annu-ity payment based on the ratio of your investment in the

    contract to the total expected return. The other method isthe Simplified Method, which is discussed in Publication575, Pension and Annuity Income.

    Who must use the General Rule. Use this publication ifyou receive pension or annuity payments from:

    1) A nonqualified plan (for example, a private annuity,a purchased commercial annuity, or a nonqualifiedemployee plan),

    2) A qualified plan if:

    a) Your annuity starting date is beforeNovember19, 1996 (and after July 1, 1986), and you do not

    qualify to use, or choose not to use, the SimplifiedMethod, or

    b) You are 75 or over and the annuity payments areguaranteed for at least 5 years (regardless ofyour annuity starting date).

    The following are qualified plans.

    A qualified employee plan.

    A qualified employee annuity.

    A tax-sheltered annuity (TSA) plan or contract.
