What zip code is valid for 1099-R when living overseas? The address block for the recipient has no zip code (Ecuador).

I would leave it blank if TurboTax allows that, or enter 00000, or enter any zip code that gets you past the Review.

 

The zip code make no difference to your tax return.

Thanks! I finally changed the zip code to the payer’s (since our payee’s zip code was empty) and that worked.

I really appreciate your quick response.
