My husband and I have one pension and two social security accounts from the UK. In previous years I filed it on 1099-R with 11-1111111 in the TIN line. This year it will not accept that entry. Like the person who first asked this question, we also will owe more state tax if we enter it as miscellaneous income. I spoke to a TT expert this morning who suggested entering it as foreign income, but that does not work, as I have to tell what UK form I got the information from. I think the foreign income category is for people who are still working.
Not sure how to fix this, as I can't even get past the federal part of TT without that TIN number for the pensions.
