When I could not get the TT update to install due to error, I clicked the link to manually update TT. I found a link to it that may help you here Error 1603: "A fatal error occurred during installation or updating"
Once updated and able to go back into TT, I deleted the 1099R at issue and re-entered with its code 4D. This nonqualified annuity for my husband was inherited in 2012 and his father had RMDs. My husband opted for the lifetime stretch option that was available in 2012, thus he has RMDs. Prior to 2024, TT asked for the date of birth of person who died and knew that as a beneficiary, RMDS were required and asked if it was taken in full or part and for the amount of RMD.
Currently, with this update, the 403b or other qualified retirement account question is gone but the RMD questions are missing. There is a question at end of entering all 1099Rs that asks if all RMDs have been taken. I checked this to indicate all had been taken.
I have not filed my returns in hopes TT will add the proper RMD questions back as in 2023 and prior years. I am concerned about filing without being able to specify amount of RMD taken for this specific 1099R with nonqualified annuity.
