Turbo tax Type of account- IRA should not be selected unless this account is an IRA.

This is my first year taking an RMD on my inherited IRA  from my dad.

 

TurboTax is not allowing me to check the box for IRA in the section. When I go ahead and check “other”, it lets me go through. Apparently it was not checked on the form 1099R to begin with, or at least that’s what I’m understanding.

 

Does this sound right? is it not considered an IRA since it is an inherited IRA?
