Retirement tax questions

You do not need to compute the number for box 2a.  If it was left blank on your Form 1099-R, then that is the way you need to enter the 1099-R.

There will be follow-up questions after you enter the 1099-R that will ask you all the questions needed so that TurboTax can calculate the taxable portion.
