I should not have to pay taxes on this amount, yet turbotax has put this amount into distributions from IRA. How do I enter this info into turbotax?

If you received a 1099-R, it is a Distribution from an IRA account.

Whether it is taxable or not depends on the Code in Box 7 of the 1099-R.  When you enter the 1099-R into TurboTax, you will be asked some questions about your distribution. 

TurboTax will report the distribution on your tax return, but it will not be taxable income.
