How to delete form 4852 on TurboTax desktop version

[EmileS]

Entered form 4852 due to error on 1099R (fraud on IRA account). Received revised 1099R and entered it. But ... unable to remove this form 4852. (View Forms > 4852 > Delete does NOT delete it.)

Previous notes explained removing this form from the ONLINE version which I DO NOT use. Older post shows startup TurboTax and go to "My Account" > "Tools" > "Delete a Form." However, I do NOT have a "My Account" topic.

Appreciate the help 🙂

Have you tried removing (or did you remove) the erroneous 1099-R first?

Talked to Intuit. My form 4852 was LINKED to a 1099R form and could therefore NOT be removed by itself. Had to remove the 1099R form and then was able to remove form 4852.  Then had to re-enter 1099R info again.

Haha 🙂  Yes, that solved the problem. Thanks a lot!
