If you could re-post the link, I'd like to look it up and see if it might be of help to me.  Earlier, I did find a known issue TT was working on re:1099-R, with a sign up for updates. It's not quite the same as my scenario, it's for  Users that have a version of TT where (ironically almost opposite of my problem) they do have a figure in Box 16 of their 1099-R, but cannot enter anything  because Box 16 is missing from their TT product. I signed up for it in case my issue might also be cleared by their fix, which they indicated would be within 7 days, but it's been two weeks, and there have been two updates (including one specifically for Ohio) but  my problem persists.
