TurboTax wants a number from Box 16 on W-2 form. I didn't get a W-2, but a 1099-R instead, and Box 16 is empty, so what do I do?

Not A Product Question

I know it isn't a product question, but it is a form question, so please answer it.

Do not try to enter a 1099R in the area for W-2's.

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.

TurboTax created a 1040-SR for me. Is that my official return? Is that what I submit to the IRS?

Yes. a 1040/1040SR (pulse and additional schedules) IS the tax return.
