Why is my pension doubled from what I entered in turbotax 2021?

I entered the amount of pension from my 1099-R. When the screen comes up that says "Here's a picture of your 2021 income" my pension is exactly double what I entered. I verified I did not enter it twice. Why would it be displaying double what I entered?

Make sure that the same pension income is not entered in any other section such as Wages and Salaries section.

 

Follow these steps to see if an extra 1099-R exists:

  1. Go to Tax Tools On the left panel
  2. Click Tools
  3. In the Tools Center, click Delete a form
  4. From the Review Form List, check to see if there is an extra copy of the 1099-R form
  5. If not, consider deleting the 1099-R form and re-enter it
