The payer should have included code D in box 7 if the distribution was from a nonqualified annuity is generally sufficient for TurboTax to treat it as such.

If it's a 4 it represents the decedent's death.

If it's a 7 it's a normal distribution

Thank you so much for your reply. When following your instructions step 7. The program asked about RMD's instead of where is this distribution from. I entered none was and RMD, giving me no other options to enter nonqualified?

TurboTax Online version started asking the following question on 3/6/25 about a 1099-R distribution I entered for a Non-Qualified Stretch Annuity I inherited (1099-R Box 7 is 4D). Neither of the answers to the question below are correct for this 1099-R. I can’t find a way to resolve this Federal Tax Review error. If I select No, it produces additional errors because the 4D distribution code is for a death distribution from a non-qualified annuity. Fixing the new errors loops back to the issue / question below again. Please post a solution or have the software development team fix this bug so I can file my taxes.

Was This Distribution From a 403(b) Plan?
- Please read below and take any necessary actions.
- The distribution rules are slightly different for 403(b) plans compared to other more common qualified retirement plans, like 401(k)s. (These plans are similar to 401(k) plans, but typically only offered by public schools and certain charities.)

Answer #1: Yes, this is a 403(b) plan
Answer #2: No, it's another type of qualified retirement plan

The developers messed up the question sequence for this situation and TurboTax should not be asking this question when code D is present. Presently, the only way to get TurboTax to accept this Form 1099-R with codes 4 and D entered is to correct the entry in forms mode of the download version of TurboTax. You, might be able to get a reasonable result by omitting the code D and answering a question that asks if the distribution is from a nonqualified plan or a qualified plan (it's from a nonqualified plan), but I'm not sure.
