Is this a mistake on turbo tax? The boxes on social security window do not match the boxes on my social security statement. Is it an error?

For example, l do not see box 5

Maybe you are in the wrong kind of 1099.  

Enter a SSA-1099, SSA-1099-SM or RRB-1099  under

Federal Taxes on the left side or top

Wages and Income

Then scroll down to Retirement Plans and Social Security

Then the second line - Social Security (SSA-1099. RRB-1099) - click the Start or Revisit  button

There should be a screen with a column of boxes.  2 columns if you are married.

I couldn't post a screenshot right now.  Do you get a screen similar to this one?  

See my screenshot at the end of this thread

You should be able to post a SSA-1099 to both Online and Desktop.

Log into TurboTax.

1. Under Federal click Wages and Income
2. Scroll down to Social Security (SSA-1099, RRB-1099) and select it
3. The screen is the input screen and is headed Tell us about the benefits you received

The input screen is as described above and does have Box 5 as the first entry.

Also, be sure you have a SSA-1099 Social Security Form.

Please contact us again and provide some additional details.
