Why isn't my code 7 non disability working in distribution codes? Your form shows normal distribution.

By entering code 7 on the return, which you show as normal distribution and my 1099R shows as non disability, It then asks me- What did you do with the money form office of personnel management? 1) did I move it another retirement account or returned to same account? or 2) did I do something else with the cash out?

I did nothing is stays in the account and has for over 5 years

You should choose "7-Normal Distribution", because that's what it is.

For whatever reason, the OPM changes the wording to "7 - NONDISABILITY", but a code 7 is a code 7.

If you received a 1099-R, this means that you took some money out of the pension (probably to use for "something else"). Did you not receive a distribution in 2017 from this OPM pension? If so, you have to report it as taxable income.
