The SSA-1099 for death benefit will be entered in the same area as all other SSA-1099's, to get back to this section, please see these instructions: https://ttlc.intuit.com/replies/4767455


If those instructions do not work, please follow these steps to access this information:

  • On the Tax Timeline, select "Federal Taxes" then select "Wages and Income" on the second menu bar. 
  • Click "Edit" (or Revisit) next to Social Security (SSA-1099, RRB-1099). If you do not see this in your list, click the "Check for more income" button, then select "Skip to see all income". Under the "Retirement Plans and Social Security" section select "Start" next to "Social Security (SSA-1099, RRB-1099)".

  • Select "Yes" to the question "Did you receive any Social Security benefits?"
  • Select the box next to "Social Security benefits (Form SSA-1099)" and begin entering the data from your form.
