Get your taxes done using TurboTax

If box 5 on your amended SSA-1099 is zero (or blank), then yes, you should enter zero in box 5 in TurboTax when you make the changes for your amended tax return.


In your amended return you will have to enter an explanation of the changes. You should say something like "Received corrected Form SSA-1099 with box 5, Net Benefits, changed to zero."
