Follow the steps below to enter a 1099-R in TurboTax:

 

  1. Open or continue your return
  2. In the Federal section, select Wages & Income
  3. Scroll to locate Retirement Plans and Social Security, and select Show more
  4. Select Start or Revisit next to IRA, 401(k), Pension Plan Withdrawals (1099-R).

The response was complete garbage.

"scroll to retirement income section, click SHOW MORE"

That's the entire thing.

There is no SHOW MORE.

I updated the program today, so it's not that it's out of date.

Do better.
