1099-Q box 6 question is worded very confusing
the step-by-step form for the 1099-Q brings you to Box 6. The question is worded twice. Once where you would answer Yes. And once where you would answer No.
=======================
Box 6: Is the recipient of the distribution the designated beneficiary?
Recipient is not designated beneficiary
Yes
No
=======================
If I focus on the first question, the answer is Yes. But choosing Yes, results in Box 6 in form 1099-Q being checked which is the wrong result.
If I focus on the second statement, the answer is No (this is a double negative and is a very poor way to phrase a question/statement). However, if I do answer No, then the Box 6 in form 1099-Q is not checked, which is the correct result.
Turbotax team--Please fix this so the language is not confusing.
Finally, please fix the QTP to Roth IRA box so that it properly works soon.
Thanks!
