I assume that you are in the Pennsylvania state interview in TurboTax.

On terms of answering the retirement plan screen to know if your plan is tax exempt in Pennsylvania, there are two requirements:

You are eligible if you were eligible to retire under your plan's rules (as opposed to early).
The plan is eligible if it meets Pennsylvania rules. See this article from the Pennsylvania Institute of Certified Public Accountants about eligible plans in Pennsylvania.

Some of the plans you can identify directly (like military pension) but most retirement plans you may have to do some investigation. That is, you may need to call your retirement plan and ask them if they meet the rules as described in the link above.

For most qualified retirement plans (i.e., pensions and annuities from an employer), if you are of eligible full retirement age in the plan, the pension is probably not taxable - but call them anyway.

You did not answer the question. What type should I enter for Pennsylvania?

How to answer PA Distribution type for a 1099R in turbo tax

I received a 1099R for a UPS pension where I get a regular monthly payment. I started receiving this pension when I was 61. However, there are PA tax taken out. The distribution code in box 7 is 7, the IRA/SEP box is not checked, box 1 and 2 (gross and taxable amount) are the same amount, box 8 ,9, 10, 11 are blank and there were PA taxes taken out in box12.

I'm eligible, plan's eligible (no PA tax) does not seem to be the right choice. None of the other choices in the pull down make sense to my situation. If I leave the question with no entry turbo tax flags it as an error.

Choices from the pull down are:

N No entry

I31 PA School, state or municipal employee plan

I11 United Mine Workers pension

I32 Military pension

I33 U.S. Civil service retirement/disability/annuity

K1 Annuity or Non-civil service disability

I21 Early distribution from a retirement plan

I12 Rollover

I13 I’m eligible; plan is eligible (no PA tax)

I22 I’m not eligible yet; plan is eligible in PA

J1 Traditional or Roth IRA; I’m over 59.5

Yes, I13 is the choice for private pensions.
