Box 7 has distribution code 7 and box 3 has an amount in it. My husband left his job and started a new job. All we did was close the retirement account and deposit the check into a traditional IRA within the 60 day time period. I have no idea what to enter into bob 2a and Turbo tax won't let it blank.

Do not enter anything in box 2a. Leave it blank. After entering the 1099-R, answer all the follow up questions. One of the questions will ask you what you did with the money and you will answer that you rolled it over to an IRA.
Similar for me, my 2a is blank, the 2b is not checked, and it was a total distribution because it was from a death benefit, and that is blank too. Now I know it's improperly prepared but my taxes happen to be due today because I owe. Turbo tax says 2 a must have a value, even if it is zero. If I put zero, they owe me a ton, which I know is wrong. So I'm stuck and I don't know what to enter
