Question

How do I report a bug to turbotax?

I have entered all required information from my 1099-R for IRA distribution. Why won't it show on 1040-RS line 4a?

TurboTax Online

Please confirm that the 1099-R box 7 indicates IRA/SEP/Simple is checked.

Double check that is correctly posted in the input section.

Under Federal

Wages & Income
Scroll to IRA, 401(k), Pension Plan Withdrawals (1099-R) [Add/Edit]
Did you get a 1099-R in 2024? [yes]
If you are adding a 1099-R [+ Add another 1099-R]
The steps are the same from here
[Change how I enter my form]
[Type it Myself]

Where do I enter my 1099-R?

I have checked, deleted and reentered my information on the correct form for the 1099R. It will not send my IRA distribution amount to line 4a of 1040. PLEASE CORRECT THIS SO I CAN FILE MY RETURN.

To clarify what distribution code is appearing in Box 7? Also check to see this is incorrectly appearing in Box 5A. If so, you need to check the box in the 1099R entry that says "The Ira/SEP, SIMPLE Box is checked on my 1099R".
