I took an RMD from a SEP IRA which I asked the fiduciary to direct to a qualaified charity.
On the Turbo Tax 1099R form I indi cated that the distribution was made directly to a
charity. But, TT will NOT recognize this as a charitable contribution and is including the amount in my taxable income.
I tried getting an answer online but the specialist said (incorrectly) that QCDs cannot be made from Sep IRAs; that is only correct for active Seps. Mine is inactive -
I have no idea how to solve this using the TT software which is worse this year than it ever has been.
