Is there a TurboTax program error regarding the 1099R Summary regarding the insurance premiums for retired law enforcement?
In the Federal review I keep getting an error on Line 26d when conducting the final check/review before filing. The amount on that line keeps doubling to $6000. The amount should be $3000 which is what the error says. I am a retired safety officer. PossibleProgram problem? I have deleted and reentered the 1099R from OPM several times; however, the amount keeps defaulting to $6000. This I believe is overstating my taxable income by $3000. The program should autofill the box with the $3000. I thought I could just click on the summary sheet and correct it to 3000, but that does not seem possible. This shouldn't be this hard to fix! Can you help direct me??

See if this helps. Enter Form 1099-R exactly how it appears. Answer Yes to the question, if you were Employed as a Public Safety Officer (law enforcement officer, firefighter, chaplain, or member of a rescue squad or ambulance crew).

Retirement tax questions
I am a Federal retiree, but not as a former law enforcement member. I had the same problem, but noted the amount in Box 5 of the 1099-R did not carry over to the worksheets for the 1099's or for medical expenses. one of the the "more info" notes that I clicked on when completing one of the pages indicated the amount in box 5 would carry over to the total health insurance amount. Box 5 on my 1099-R says the number can represent more than just insurance premiums, but, in my case, the number was exactly the amount of my premiums. Is it possible the TurboTax program needs to ask what that number represents or, perhaps, I just missed where it does so?

Yes, there should have been a screen that asked if it was health insurance premiums.
That is the screen that follows "Were You Employed as a Public Safety Officer?
