Turbo2024 RMD entry problem

[trevor-williams9]

Check the box for "none of these plans fail to withdraw the RMD", but Turbo2024 says I owe penalty. How do I fix it? Tried deleting browsing data and reentered data twice, but the problem persists. Please help!

If you have multiple IRAs but took the total RMD only from one IRA then select "An IRA..." on the "Did You Miss a Required Distribution From Any Retirement Accounts?" screen and click "Continue". On the "Total RMD for all other IRAs" screen enter the RMD from your other IRAs (where you didn't take a distribution from).
