Are you entering your 1099R in the correct section?
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.

My 1099 R form is different then the instructions
Point- TurboTax 1099-R form for a Pension Plan. Lines 12, 13, 14, and 15 on turbotax are as follows
12 - StateTax Withheld
13 -State ID
13 - Payer's State No.
14 - State Distribution Amt
Real nice. Turbotax has listed #13 Twice? And, the 4 sections listed do not even coincide with the 1099-R form I have. My form 1099-R reads as follows:
12 - State Distribution
13 - Local Tax Withheld
14 - Name of Locality
15 - Local Distribution
Really now? This is what we have to pay for? Inaccuracies that prevent prompt filing of tax returns isn't something intuit gets penalized for, but they should. I'm not content here. I think this is more than just a small oversight. It would be unacceptable if I were the one making such an error at my job,.
Whether a careless mistake, an inaccuracy, or just poor instructions that have little explanation or justification, it definitely requires changes promptly. I filed my own taxes already and since then, the version I used had several updates and bug fixes, 2 of which required me to provide information to make sure my return was complete and proper. I'm not trying to say I think intuit is a poor choice for doing taxes. In fact, I use nothing but turbotax and have for over 10+ years. But I do not like seeing such blatant inconsistencies and errors when there is cost attached to them. In alot of instances our time is worth money too. Better auditing of software would be nice. But nobody from intuit is posting an answer with an actual solution or acknowledgement of an error in the tax software so how can this be a recommended solution? It's as if the solution is saying intuit isn't at fault here when they are.
If there are any potential pension payers that use a different format on their 1099-R, Turbotax should have noted this and guided users to properly address it. This issue is still unresolved, and has been for a while. Unacceptable
