RMD entry

This seems so simple.  I entered my routinely paid yearly RMD (data from its 1099-R).  It was generated and paid like it should have been in 12/2023.  Turbo tax somehow says "We noticed you had to take out money from a retirement plan early." It speaks of tax penalties.  I am 74 and don't recall anything like this last year.  I am using Turbotax Desktop.  What happened?  What should I do?  Thank you for your time.

    Thank you, I reviewed your return. One of your Form 1099-R is entered with code 1, please verify if that is the correct code shown in box 7. If not, then please edit your entry.

     

    If you indeed have code 1 in box 7 then you can enter then you can enter the amount under “Other” on the “These Situations May Lower Your Tax Bill”. This will remove the 10% early withdrawal penalty.

    What is the code in box 7 of Form 1099-R? Please verify your Form 1099-R entry.

    Hi!  My code in block 7 of the 1099-R for 2024 is 7.  There is no other code. The IRA/SEP/SIMPLE is blank.  Thanks for looking at this.

    I'm chiming back in.  Could this be an issue?  I had an RMD last year, a routine withdrawal, but I misplaced the 1099-R and didn't include it in my tax filing in the spring.  I discovered the 1099-R and amended my Turbotax filing in August to include it.  Could this now be confusing the program somehow?  It thinks it sees two RMDs since last April?
