Retirement tax questions

NO. It isn't an early distribution. It's a retirement pension from the state of Mississippi THAT IS NOT TAXABLE.

"Retirement benefits are not subject to Mississippi State Income Tax"

I've used TT for 8 years and it has done this correctly each year. I'm sorry TurboTax has a bug in it this year.  H&R Block calculated it correctly, and I will use it this year.
