Downloading 1099s

I had a problem with duplications. I deleted the duplicates and all was well until I got to the end of the return. All at once I confronted with many necessary corrections. My refund fell by over 100%. and I was filling out an Excess RMD form. The form slots were not populating as they should; I was asked to fill in an RMD amount, I did. The from however, did not populate the distribution amount. The program believed that I had taken out much more money than the RMD. I couldn't get any help and was certain the program was not working properly. I deleted the return and started anew. I found one of the reasons for the duplications was not turning off the forms inputted from last years return, for my spouse. All of the forms were downloaded twice the first time around. My suggestion is to pay close attention to what forms belong to whom and deselect when prompted as necessary.
