No matter what the person's age is, the 1099-R must be entered in the software on the Wages&Income page.

It is not considered "earned" income, but it is considered as potential "taxable" income, depending on whether the $$ were put (effectively) in your pocket and then taxed, or.......... if "rolled" into an IRA, then it wouldn't be taxed...but teh IRS expects to see that 1099-R reported on your tax return.
