Question

I do not understand why I am being questioned about 8915A when I have never received any Qualified Disaster Distributions. How do I move forward with this?

These steps should allow you to move forward: 

Is it possible that it was inadvertently selected during the question/interview?

  • Go to the Wages & Income area and select Edit/Add for IRA,401(k), Pension Plan Withdrawals (1099-R).
  • From the Your 1099-R screen, scroll down and click Continue
  • Here you will be able to answer No to the Qualified Disaster Distribution question. 

Then,

  • Sign out of TurboTax
  • Clear cache & cookies, which in general is done by holding down Ctrl+Shift+Del. Under the Basic tab, clear data for at least 24 hours, but preferably 7 days
  • Close your browser window
  • Re-open TurboTax, preferably in Chrome

Please check that your device meets system requirements.
