Does anyone know how to enter FORM 1099-R into TurboTax Deluxe 2021 Desktop for Mac?  All the instructions at the website have to do with the online version of TurboTax.  I can't find any tips or explanations in the actual software on how to do this.  FYI, one 1099-R is for an IRA to IRA rollover.  The other 1099-R is for a pension to IRA rollover.  I don't believe I owe any tax.

    Should be about the same way as online.

    The easiest way to get to the 1099-R entry screen is to simply search for 1099-R (upper- or lower-case, with or without the dash) in your TurboTax program and then click the "Jump to" link in the search results.

     

    Enter a 1099R under

    Federal Taxes Tab or Personal (Home & Business)

    Wages & Income at the top

     

    Then scroll way down to Retirement Plans and Social Security,

    Then IRA, 401(k), Pension Plans (1099R) - click Start or Revisit

     

    There are 4 boxes.  Be sure to pick the right box for the kind of 1099R you got.

     

    If you are filing a Joint return be sure to pick which person it is for.
