I was advised to lie to the software. That worked, but of course, anything goes wrong, it's on me. But it was a TT rep who gave the advice.
Basically, what I did was to say that every 1099-R entry I made for an IRA was the exact amount of RMD required for that account. TT has no way of confirming that, so it figures I've satisfied my RMD. I keep a spreadsheet of RMDs for all IRAs and make darned sure the ones I take total to the total RMD for all accounts.
TT should either ask for the total RMD amount required for all accounts, or for entry of RMDs for each account, whether or not one has taken a distribution from that account and received a 1099-R. But the way it does it is nuts.
Sorry to be so slow responding, but TT messages went into my spam folder and I just saw them.
