State tax filing

The box to check that indicates the distribution is from an IRA is on the Form 1099-R input screen.  It is right after you enter the information from box 7 for the distribution code shown on your 1099-R.


Use these steps to go back to the Form 1099-R section of your return and edit that Form 1099-R to see if the box was checked in error:

  • On the top row of the TurboTax online screen, click on Search (or for CD/downloaded TurboTax locate the search box in the upper right corner)
  • This opens a box where you can type in “1099-R” and click the magnifying glass (or for CD/downloaded TurboTax, click Find)
  • The search results will give you an option to “Jump to 1099-R
  • Click on the blue “Jump to 1099-R” link

 

If the problem persists, try deleting and re-entering the Form 1099-R.
