How do you get around the new questions about RMD's on the 1099R worksheets?

They have new questions?  This is the first I've heard of it. 😮

The Proseries error kicks in when you prepare a return and the client is 73 or older.  I did a quick scan of IRS pronouncements and didn't see anything new on 1099R reporting.

It's a ProSeries glitch.  There have been numerous posts on the issue since it popped up last week.

Actually it seems to me that it kicks in when you have a taxpayer who is 73 or older WHO HAS A RETIREMENT DISTRIBUTION...

But if they don't report a distribution the error does not appear?

I'm just wondering which is actually more likely to NOT have received an RMD?
