Retirement tax questions

@Robert Collins A FEIN (federal employer identification number) is nine digits. The number you posted is eight-digits.

 

As @VolvoGirl said, TurboTax has a separate place to enter SSA-1099. Do not enter Social Security benefits as a 1099-R. Social Security requires a separate tax calculation. If you enter it as a 1099-R, you tax return will be incorrect.
