    To enter your retirement income, Go to  Federal> Wages and Income>Retirement Plans and Social Security>IRA  401 k) Pension Plan Withdrawals to enter your 1099R.

    What do you not understand?   if you have a 1099R go to the spot already mentioned in the reply.   There is not a special place in the software for federal retirement income.   You enter your 1099R with all of the codes that are on the document.

    Again----stop looking for a spot that is exclusively for federal retirement.   You just enter your 1099R where other people enter their 1099R's.   Your 1099R will have the codes on it that will be treated correctly by the software.

     

    To enter your retirement income, Go to  Federal> Wages and Income>Retirement Plans and Social Security>IRA  401 k) Pension Plan Withdrawals to enter your 1099R.
