Retirement tax questions
@CherGetInHere We know it's asking for the payer's EIN. BUT BUT people are trying to enter their Social Security SSA-1099 in the WRONG PLACE as a W2 or 1099R! There is nothing to fix. If you enter it as a 1099R or W2 it will end up on the wrong line on your 1040 and the IRS will say you didn't report it.
Enter a SSA-1099, SSA-1099-SM or RRB-1099 under
Federal Taxes (Personal for Home&Business)
Wages and Income
Then scroll down to Retirement Plans and Social Security
Then the second line - Social Security (SSA-1099. RRB-1099) - click the Start or Revisit button
This is from 2020 but there is no Payer EIN box on the SS entry screen.
