    If 1099-R result makes no sense, delete the 1099-R and try again to enter it correctly.

    Did you import the 1099R?  It could have imported wrong.  Delete it and enter it again manually.   Or you typed an amount wrong.  Did you get any other 1099R forms?

    The total shows correctly. It's the section that says Taxable that increased. I uploaded it from a PDF. I don't understand why taxable would go higher.

    The taxable amount on 1040 line 4b is 5,000 higher?  The 1099R may have imported wrong.  That’s common.  Delete it and enter it again Manually.  That usually fixes it.
