Where do I enter line 3 and line 4 of the form SSA-1099 that are not listed in the Step-by-Step view

[DoninGA · Accepted solution]

When entering the SSA-1099 you only use the amount that is in box 5 of the form.  Box 5 is the result of box 3 minus box 4.

To enter Social Security benefits reported on form SSA-1099

Click on Federal Taxes (Personal using Home and Business)
Click on Wages and Income (Personal Income using Home and Business)
Click on I'll choose what I work on (if shown)
Scroll down to Retirement Plans and Social Security
On Social Security (SSA-1099, RRB-1099), click the start or update button
