My Form 1099-R 2023 Distribution from Pensions.... does not have a box 16, which is State Distribution Amt. What do I enter in this box in TurboTax? My 1099-R only has boxes 1, 2a, 2b, 4, 5, 7, 9a, 9b, 14, 15

School Employees Retirement System of Ohio. Already called SERS and they said it is a TurboTax issue.

 

TurboTax Requires Box 16 be filled in or you can't file your can't eFile your taxes.

 

One other thing on the TurboTax 1099-R (same form) screen, you can't fill in box 9a with 0. Not sure if you just leave it blank.

You will enter the amount from box 1 into box 16. You can leave box 9a blank.
