Retirement tax questions

First, the question about a QCD (Qualified Charitable Distribution) is asked as part of the 1099-R interview, that is, after you enter your 1099-R AND if your distribution is from an IRA, then you may be asked the question about QCD.

 

Second, unless you are at least 70 1/2 (and therefore eligible to make a QCD), TurboTax won't even ask you the question, because you couldn't answer YES anyway.

 

This means that the question about a QCD is NOT to be found in the charitable contribution section for Schedule A.
