The marking of the IRA/SEP/SIMPLE box on the form 1099-R indicates whether the distribution is from a traditional IRA or is instead a distribution from an employer plan. If the Form 1099-R provided by the payer does not have code J, T or Q in box 7 and the IRA/SEP/SIMPLE box is not marked, the distribution is not from an IRA and it belongs on line 5a/b not line 4a/b of Form 1040. If the form provided by the payer has the IRS/SEP/SIMPLE box marked, go back an correct your marking of that box on TurboTax's 1099-R form.
