Since it is a loan, it would be deductible as a bad debt, which gets short-term capital gain treatment. It is deductible against capital gains and up to an additional $3,000 deduction per year. Unused deductions are carried over to the next year. You enter that in the Other Deductions and Credits section of TurboTax, then Nonbusiness Bad Debt. You can learn more in this IRS tax topic 453.

I paid myself an owner distribution from my pass through S-corp both in 2024 and in 2023. My CPA applied this as a non-taxable distribution so I would pay it under my personal tax. I wanted to do the same this year but do not know where in turbotax. It was previously noted on my K-1 but I was not finding that option in turbotax. I also paid for my health insurance incorrectly with my business account (did not put it on the W2) so instead of a business deduction I need to pass it to myself so it is deducted from my personal tax return. Should this expense from my business account be under an owner distribution, owner benefit, or somewhere else?
THANK YOU!! I was having issues with this and leaving that field blank fixed it. Woohoo!!

Go back and check the 1099R .  Delete the 1099R and enter it again Manually.  That usually fixes it especially if you imported it.   Enter a 1099R under Federal Taxes Wages & Income Then scroll way down to Retirement Plans and Social Security Then IRA, 401(k), Pension Plan Withdrawals (1099-R) – Click Start   For state boxes,  if box 16 is empty or zero then for box 16 State Distribution put the same amount that’s in box 1.  If box 14 is blank you can leave boxes 14,15 & 16 blank.  
If you go through the interview, you go through every section.   But you can click on Deductions & Credits (either up top or to the left) to exit out of any section and skip over it.   
If you are using the online version, you will need to create a new account. You can only do one persons return per account.

Thank you for your prompt response MaryK4.   But I'm still a bit confused with your reply.   So my question still stands, do I need to report the original 1099-S for $55K AND the Corrected 1099-S for $0 on my 1040 Form OR do I have to report JUST the CORRECTED 1099-S for $0?
