Retirement tax questions

That's one option if it doesn't mess up something else on the return. Another option would be to overstate the gross distribution by $1 but leave the taxable amount as shown on the 1099R. At least that might appear to be a rounding error but should be more accurate than TT.  Or create two 1099s. As you say the IRS doesn't see what you had to do to get the numbers right.
