Balance of IRA RMD after QCD deduction not showing up on tax return

[DonaldK1]

I have entered my 1099-R for my IRAs on the program and have also listed the balance of my RMD after the deduction of the QCD, but the program is just showing zero amount left as taxable, which is incorrect since my total RMD exceeded my QCD.  How can I correct this?

Your QCD amount counts towards your RMD therefore when TurboTax asks "How much of This Distribution Applied to your December 31, 2024 RMD" include the QCD amount. Please verify the amount entered as transferred to charity.
