I am entering into my tax form my info for my pension payment. I can't bypass the RMD question even though RMD does not apply to pension payments. Any help on this one?

When you enter a 1099R for a pension you just need to say it was all RMD.  A pension meets the requirements for RMD.

Required minimum distribution (RMD) is the minimum withdrawal you are required to take out of your IRA (including SEPs, SARSEPs, and SIMPLE IRAs) or employer-sponsored retirement plan (such as pension, profit-sharing, 401(k), 403(b), or 457(b) plan), starting at a certain age.

 

You may need to report the amount of the pension distribution as the RMD.
