I'm trying to enter information for SSA 1099-R but am unable to enter any information in the boxes. It simply won't allow me to input any information

If you are using Turbo Tax Online, the most likely reason for boxes/buttons that don't work or not being able to enter information is that something in the web browser is not displaying the page properly. There are directions in this TurboTax Help article to clear cache and cookies. You will want to follow those instructions, then close your browser, reload it, and log back into TurboTax. 

Another way around this is to simply use a different web browser.  You can select from Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Internet Explorer or Safari.  If you need to install another browser, be sure to go to the trusted home site for the software for  security reasons.

 

If you are using the Turbo Tax Phone App, then try opening Turbo Tax in the browser window on your phone. It will use the same login information but may display the page better. 

 

If you are using TurboTax Desktop, try saving and closing the program and then relaunch to see if there is an update available.

 

If you are on a laptop, you may need to use an external mouse or double click on some fields.

I am using a new home and business disk and it will not load the page needed for the SSA-1099 information. I have tried reloading the disk but nothing is helping.

I wish that I was in the wrong spot since that would be a easy fix. I am at the correct place but the button will not pull up anything.

Which TurboTax program are you using?

The TurboTax online web-based editions?

Or the TurboTax desktop CD/Download editions installed on your computer?  If these editions. which operating system, Windows or Mac?

Try this procedure -

Click on Apply and OK

Start the TurboTax program and see if the problem persists
