Why am i being asked about 2015 Social Security and Income?

[bosso3 · Accepted solution]

In the Social Security Income dialog, when you entered your SSA 1099 information, you probably answered "Yes" to the question regarding whether any of the reported benefits were for a preceding year (eg: for lump sum payments for one or more preceding years). 

If your answer was incorrect, change it to the correct answer.

If you answer was correct, provide the requested information and TurboTax will determine if any of the payment(s) for previous years is taxable.
