We have a 1099-R for a Roth Distribution.  Box 16 "State Distribution" shows the same number as the Gross Distribution amount.  However, n back of form is a line statement with Gross Distribution - Employee Contribution and then further over State Distribution (and, a number different from what is in Box 16  - - that State Distribution number is the Delta between Gross Distribution and Employee Contributions.  Which number do I use in Turbotax for the "State Distribution?

    Use the amount listed on the your 1099-R in box 16. Do not use any numbers from the details, just what it on the form.
