Where do we enter Voluntary Federal Income Tax Withheld on Form SSA-1099?

[deelane0828]

My husband's SSA-1099 has an amount in Box 6, Voluntary Federal Income Tax Withheld.  I did not see a place to enter this item, and I want us to be credited for this payment.  Where do I put it in?

To enter Social Security benefits reported on form SSA-1099

See Screenshot

• 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

Or enter ssa-1099 in the Search box located in the upper right of the program screen.  Click on Jump to ssa-1099

I followed your steps and have the SSA-1099 information questionnaire on the screen but there is no place to enter the Voluntary Federal Income Tax withheld (Box 6) information. Shall I enter it elsewhere?

I cannot enter any numbers into the SSA-1099  box 6. Zero show up in red and will not allow me to change it. Same Part B Med. Premiums

Which TurboTax program are you using?

The TurboTax online web-based editions where you have a User ID and Password to access your online account?

The TurboTax desktop CD/Download editions where you have installed the software on your personal computer?  If the desktop editions, which Operating System, Windows or Mac?

1.  Where do I enter Voluntary Federal Income Tax Withheld on Form SSA-1099 

2.  Where do I enter Federal Income Tax Withheld from Form 1099-R

I'm using Turbo Tax Premium

I'm NOT using Turbo Tax Personal and Home!

I'm using Turbo Tax Premier

[buchanan1923]

What is a Screen Shot and how do I find that?

[buchanan1923]

Can you PLEASE answer my question?

I need to find where I enter the Federal Income Tax With Held on the SSA 1099 and, also, where to enter the Federal Tax With Held from on a 1099-R

AGAIN: I'm using the Turbo Tax Premier Edition.  I have no idea what a Screen Shot is, or where to find that!

[buchanan1923]

USELESS 

Thanks for nothing.  I'll think twice b/4 I ever use your program again!
