Retirement tax questions

You should not enter an amount for box 4 of your SSA-1099 if it doesn't actually appear on your form. Instead, you should contact the Social Security Administration here and request that a corrected SSA-1099 be issued. As you suggested, if you file your return without correcting the situation with Social Security, you may face difficulties later on.
