Retirement tax questions

IRS systems will reject returns with dummy numbers under their current iteration. You can't put one in, and you can't put foreign pension in the area designed for domestic pensions that are subject to the IRS matching systems. This isn't a TurboTax issue, it is a modernized efile system issue.  

The workaround is how anyone, even a professional, will prepare the return, and manual adjustments will have to be made in TurboTax for states that allow a foreign pension to be treated the same as other pensions. 

You've posted this on dozens of threads to make it appear to be a huge problem when it's not. It's not the software, it's the IRS rule here, and the solution has been given.  If that solution isn't workable for your tax return then the program isn't for you. What you're asking for isn't to report it properly, but would report it improperly.

Some software, perhaps, ignores those entries or knows to remove the data from the efile transmission but I've honestly not seen one yet that does this.  Foreign pensions aren't the same and they don't go in the area for 1099-R because they're not reported on that form and they won't match in the IRS systems.
