I have a federal civil service pension - there is no RMD, but the @#$%^& AI bot doesn't get it.

When you answer the questions about a pension you are supposed to say it was ALL an RMD.

Say all of it is the RMD. When you turn 73 it will ask you if it is the RMD. Say yes. Anything your pension pays you is considered to be the RMD. Traditional pensions automatically fulfill the rules of an RMD. So for the RMD question put in the same amount as box 1.
