On page 13:

  • Replace all references to Worksheet 2 with Worksheet 1B.
  • Replace “the $20,000 limit” with “the $22,000 limit” in the fourth sentence in Example 2.  The fourth sentence should read as follows: You apply $2,000 of the April 30, 2022, distribution to Disaster 1, as $20,000 of the $22,000 limit was used in 2021.
