    Hello Surcuyo,

    Yes, you will claim your RMD and the gains on that distribution as one entry in the software. Generally, the administrator of your account will issue one 1099-R for your RMD. This 1099-R will include the distribution and any gains in box 1. Any gains on the distribution will be taxed the same as the rest of the distribution.
