No.  That's not going to match form 5329.  It goes on line 8z of Schedule 1. There is a question in the 1099-Q interview about ABLE.  You may have answered that wrong.

 

To enter the taxable amount ($9996) on line 8z, not using the 1099-Q, interview:

In TurboTax (TT), enter at:
- Federal Taxes tab (Personal in  Home & Business)

 - Wages & Income

  • “I’ll choose what I work on” Button

Scroll down to:

-Less Common Income

      -Misc Income, 1099-A, 1099-C

       - On the next screen, choose – Other reportable income  

       - On the next screen, click yes

       - On the next screen, you'll get blanks to enter the amount ($9996) and a description ("Taxable portion 529 distribution from 1099-Q")

 

You would only want to do that if you are planning on using the manually entered form 5329 that you mentioned earlier.
