Retirement tax questions

If you have multiple countries listed as Foreign Transactions from Schedule K-1 Box 16, you will see an error with instructions to "use separate worksheets" (see screenshot below from Forms Mode - click to enlarge). 

You will need to add another K-1 for each country with foreign transactions. The basic K-1 information is the same, but enter only the information for one country on each K-1. Unfortunately, there is no option to copy an existing K-1 to a new form.

Add another K-1 in TurboTax for desktop as follows:

  1. Use the Find box in the TurboTax header to search on "k-1." Click the jump-to link to go to the start of the section. Click Yes.
  2. Choose the type of K-1 you need to work on by clicking Update.
  3. Click Add another K-1 at the bottom of the list.
  4. Follow the prompts to enter basic info from Schedule K-1 and amounts for one country from Box 16.
