Is a w-2 and 1099-R the same

No they are two different forms. 

 

Here's how to enter your 1099-R:

  1. Open (continue) return if you don't already have it open.
  2. Inside TurboTax, search for 1099-R and select the Jump to link in the search results.
  3. Answer Yes on the Your 1099-R screen, then select Continue.
    • If you land on the Your 1099-R Entries screen instead, select Add Another 1099-R.
  4. Select how you want to enter your 1099-R (type it in yourself) and then follow the instructions. You can add up to 20 1099-Rs.

 

Here's how to enter a W-2 in TurboTax online:

  1. From Tax Home, open or continue your return.
  2. In the upper right menu, select search and search for W-2.
  3. Select the Jump to link at the top of the search results.
  4. At the Let's start with some info from this W?2 screen, don’t enter your employer's EIN, just select Continue.
    • Or, Add Another W-2 if you see the Here’s your W-2 info screen.
  5. On the Let’s type in the rest of your W-2 info screen, you can manually enter your W-2 information.
