It's possible you may need to delete the W-2 that may have transferred from 2024. 

 

Use the link below for your version of TurboTax to delete a form.

  • If you're using TurboTax Online software and need to delete a form, click here.
  • If you're using TurboTax Desktop software and need to delete a form, click here.

Next follow the instructions below to remove any background data that likes to hide.

 

Try clearing the cookies and cache.   It handles many issues that seem nonsensical on a regular basis with online activity. Watch to be sure you are selecting 'all time' as example.  Do not use selections like 'last hour' for those browsers that give  you options.

Once this is complete open your return and try again.

 

If you are using TurboTax Desktop, save your return, then at the top select Online, then Check for updates.

You can tell the software that you do not have a W-2.    If an "old" employer transferred over from 2024 you can delete that employer.

 

To enter retirement income:

 

 Go to Federal> Wages & Income>>Retirement Plans and Social Security  (SSA1099 and 1099RRB) to enter your SSA1099.

 

 

To enter your retirement income, Go to  Federal> Wages and Income>Retirement Plans and Social Security>IRA  401 k) Pension Plan Withdrawals to enter your 1099R.
