Go back to the W-2 section of the Wages & Income section and see if you have a form transferred in from last year  or started a W-2 this year but didn't complete them ... simply delete any unwanted or unneeded W-2 forms present.

All questions about retirement pay are slanted as W-2's.

@danaloganmercer   Please start your own new post with your details.  This is a new forum layout. Some posts that have June 2019 dates are really older posts from the old forum that got moved over. So they might be for prior years and not current info. When they migrated over the dates got changed to June 2019. And the screen shots got deleted.

@jocarrollayb   What is your issue?  You have added on to a very old thread.

That's ok.  Did you have a W2 last year that transferred over?  You can delete them.

 

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 on the left side

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

 

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

 

Don't enter the bank or broker name and don't try to import it.  It is just as fast and easy to manually enter it.  At the bottom pick -  Change How I enter my Form

Then on the next screen pick I'll Type it in Myself

 

Or what do you need help with?
