Minimum Required Distribution

My wife is more than 10 years younger than me, therefore my distribution is less than the usual. When I enter my distribution for 2024 it says I did not pay enough. The amount has been confirmed to be correct. How do I convey to Turbo Tax that I pay less than the usual amount due to age difference? Is there a box I should check or a form that should be completed. Thank you for providing much needed help!

    Turbo Tax doesn't know what your RMD should be at all.  You have to enter it.  What question is Turbo Tax asking you?  Can't you just pick all of it is the RMD?  Enter the amount from box 1 for the RMD.

    It is saying we owe over $6,000 because enough was not paid. The company that has the IRA has double checked the figures and they are correct.
