Do not try to enter your SSA1099 as a W-2.  Go to Federal> Wages & Income>>Retirement Plans and Social Security to enter your SSA1099.

Trying to file 2020 tax return and cannot enter SSA-1099, I am in the Federal Tax section. A blank page comes up.

What happens when you follow this procedure -

 

To enter Social Security benefits reported on form SSA-1099

  • Click on Federal Taxes (Personal using Home and Business)
  • Click on Wages and Income (Personal Income using Home and Business)
  • Click on I'll choose what I work on (if shown)
  • Scroll down to Retirement Plans and Social Security
  • On Social Security (SSA-1099, RRB-1099), click the start or update button

Or enter ssa-1099 in the Search box located in the upper right of the program screen. Click on Jump to ssa-1099
