Get your taxes done using TurboTax

I have followed these instructions several times. I am concerned about this comment: 

  • “The screen Did you take a disaster distribution at any time between 2018 and 2020? you are instructed to select YES if you need to report 1/3 of the amount of your distribution from a prior year.  That has already been done.  Select No, I didn't.”

None of the verbiage in the question supports me answering no to this question because I need to report 1/3 of the amount. If TurboTax wanted us to answer no when we mean yes, then they need to change the wording.


If you followed the procedure shown you already entered the 1/3 of the distribution on the Form 8915-F in the section for reporting a Form 1099-R so there is no need to you to go back and do it over again so the answer would be NO.

If you bypassed the Form 1099-R section in the Wages & Income section selecting YES would take you back to the 1099-R section so that you could enter the 1/3 of the distribution.
