Get your taxes done using TurboTax

just out of curiosity, what letter / number is in Box 7 and is the check box next to it check or not (IRA / SEP)?  I wonder if the issuer didn't fill out the form correctly?

 

I've entered plenty of these 1099 forms for  my pension and i don't recall that RMD question coming up. (and I just tested it again - same result - the question is not asked).  

 

My pension is coded as '7- normal' and I am not asked the RMD question.  If I look at the 1099-R in 'forms' view, that question is left unanswered yet there is no error on my TT return.
