I received a Form 1099-R from my former employer not a bank. Unlike previous years, there is no place available for me to report this.

Retirement income is reported on Form 1099-R. It does not have to emanate from a bank or financial institution. As long as there is a payer and an EIN, you can enter the form.

If the payment came on any other reporting form, you would need to enter it in the proper section. Let us know what reporting form you received.
