I keep getting "Check this entry" for disaster distribution because it needs review to continue to e-file

Try this procedure -

 

If you did not take a disaster distribution from your pension funds between 2018 and 2020, there may be a question that needs to be reviewed.  Follow these steps.  

  • Go to Federal / Wages & Income.
  • Scroll down to Wrap up income.
  • Continue.
  • At the screen Did you take a disaster distribution at any time between 2018 and 2020? answer No

Now watch the headings under Federal closely.  

  • When you are in Deductions & Credits
  • Scroll down and click on Wrap up tax breaks.
  • Then you are in Other Tax Situations.
  • Scroll down and click on Let's keep going.
  • Continue through to Federal Review

If you've tried the previous steps and you did not resolve the question about the disaster distributions in 2020, then try the steps listed below

 

Go to Wages & Income

  1. Scroll down to "Retirement Plans and Social Security

  2. Select IRA, 401(K) Pension Plan Withdrawals(1099-R) = Continue (you don't need to add any income forms)

  3. Have you ever taken a disaster distribution before 2021? = Yes (even if you didn't)

  4. Did either of you take a disaster distribution at any time between 2018 and 2022? = No
