Retirement tax questions

Actually, the Form CSA 1099-R does not show the taxable amount (if you have a court-ordered apportionment). OPM is unwilling to figure it and, so, puts "UNKNOWN" in Box 2a. At the bottom of the form they will type "Gross Annuity reduced by <x> amount paid to <ex-spouse's name> under court-ordered apportionment. Taxable amount not determined." Box 1 show the total gross annuity BEFORE the apportionment is subtracted. I still haven't found a way to get TurboTax to let me subtract the apportionment without changing the amount in Box 1...which would create a discrepancy the IRS will call you out on. I haven't found a way to override the taxable amount on Form 1040 Line 5b to put the correct taxable amount. ðŸ˜
