PROBLEM WITH 1099 R

[Marge]

Since the last update I am having problems with 1099-R's that have code G or rollover amounts on it.

Normally the code G takes care of it but no matter what I do with this one I keep getting red error messages that say that the total of the tax on 5329 must match total of 1099-R's in the return.

I have tried the following:

Put just an amount in box 1 with code G which is the way that the 1099 R is typed.

I have put an amount in both Box 1 and Box 2 with the Code G that does not help either.

I have put an amount in box 1, 2 and the rollover line that doesnt help either.

Help please.......

I don't know if it'll help your problem but the latest "update" includes a program update and among other forms an issue with the 1099r. Try updating close the return and re-open it.

Duh ! Will be glad when this year is over...

The problem was that I only had one 5329 pulled into the return. The 1099R's were one for spouse and one for taxpayer so I needed to pull in a second 5329 and check the spouse box..

Brain dead here

Thanks for the followup. It's always helpful to know how the problem was solved so we can avoid the same thing in the future.
