Get your taxes done using TurboTax

On the Where is your distribution from? entry following your 1099-R entry, you will select None of the above.

 

IRA is not listed because it is looking for 100% exempt government pensions.  You can deduct certain federal, New York state, or local government pension distributions from your New York income.

 

Those over age 59 1/2 can deduct up to $20,000 of certain IRA and other pension benefits on their New York return (if Married Filing Jointly, each spouse may deduct up to $20,000).   You will be asked for this information in the New York state section of TurboTax.
