Another few folk with the "Desktop" software, encountered the same problem, and solved it as follows:
1) Open tax return and switch to Forms Mode
2) Open the SS Benefits worksheet from the left-window ( "Social Sec" on left side)
3) When it opens in the rt-window...Delete it (selection at bottom of screen)
4) Return to the interview and re-enter the SSA-1099 area...and it should work now.
