Can a taxpayer with an office of personnel management code 7 pension use the simplified method to calculate non taxable portion of pension? started on 10/2/72 prior7/1/8

It appears you can not use simplified method to calculate non taxable portion of pension from Office of Personnel management code 7 form 1099 R.  The program on the date started line says must be later than 7/1/86.

Can I use simplified version or some other worksheet to calculate non taxable portion form 05 year old spouse and 96 year old taxpayer.

Husband born 10//2/22

Has Office of Personnel Management Form 1099R Code 7

Box 1  34920 gross distributin

Box 3 1820.88 employee conrtributions

Box 9b Total Employee Contributions

Started receiving pension when 50, 10/2/72


Wife has Office of Personnel Management Form 1099R Code 7

Wife born 11/19/23

Box 1 26892 gross distributions

Box 3 1820.88 Employee Contributions

Box 9 b 13451 Total Employee Conributions

Starts receiving pension when 50,   11/19/73

Again, I am unable to figure out hw to use simplified version at the bottom of the Form 1099-R as the starting date is prior to the program saying must be later than 7/1/86.

Maybe the calculated portion still left to use for non taxable pensions is all used up, so the taxpayers can no longer use the non taxable adjustment.

If they started receiving those pensions in the 70s they recovered their cost in the first 3 years under the old rules. Everything they receive now is taxable.

The more I know, the more I don't know.
