I spent about 2 hours on the phone yesterday with the same error. Turbotax is displaying the same error below to me. It is claiming that my wife was 72 in 2022 when, in fact, she will be 72 in 2023. Her birth date is entered correctly in the product. I tried to convince the customer service agents that this is a software bug to no avail. Here is the evidence: After receiving the incorrect message I changed my wife's birth date to make her much younger and went through to 1099 sequence again resulting in the same bogus error message. I restored her birth date to the correct date and changed my birth date to make me much younger (I am 73). I then went through the 1099 sequence again and, viola, the problem went away. Finally, I restored my birth date and reran the 1099 sequence one last time. The problem now recurred. The inescapable conclusion is that Turbotax is using my birth date to calculate my wife's RMD liability. Of course, I could not get this information to anyone (i.e., software engineer) who could actually locate the bug in the code and fix this problem in a subsequent release. I repeat, this issue is not a misunderstanding of the tax rules on my part. It is a BUG in the product. Can anyone provide me with the means to get this escalated to the technical folks who can fix it?
