IL Estimated Tax Response is Incorrect - I am smart enough to have tried every option available.  2 does not work for Illinois and in fact failed to generate an estimated tax form.

Form 1099-R, Box 2a - you miss the point.  I am not asking the software to do my job.  I am asking the software to function as it should.  Intuit advice has always been to enter 1099s etc exactly as they are prepared.  When "taxable amount has not been determined" and Box 2a is left blank, it is obvious that it should be entered that way.  Accordingly, not having an option to enter the taxable amount determined separately needs to be available that carries to the 1040.  Instead, you have to do something Intuit itself advises you not to do.  This is an oversight you should acknowledge.  And yes, we have to figure out how to work around limitations of the software.  In this case, having the option to enter a self determined taxable amount should be obvious and should not require a work around.
