Get your taxes done using TurboTax

I don't understand. Line 6 is asking for the sum of any 1099-R distributions from the spouse's military retirement benefits, not contributions to it.

 

First, are there 1099-Rs entered into your return?

 

Second, did you indicate that at least one of the belonged to the spouse?

 

Third, in the screens after you entered this 1099-R data, did you indicate that this was military retirement?

 

Fourth, is this distribution appearing on line 5b (or added into 5b) on the 1040 (it should be).

 

Fifth, is TurboTax trying to subtract this distribution from line 6 on the 104AD (it should be)?

 

Does this all make more sense now?
