If client qualifies for the $3,000 retired law enforcement exclusion in 2020 which is entered in the pension section, why is it not appearing on 1040?

Client qualified in 2019 and it was properly reported on 1040, but not appearing on 2020 1040.

Did you enter the amount on Screen 13?

And, BTW, it isn't *just* for retired law enforcement folks.

There's a line to enter "amount of qualified insurance..." on the 1099 wks screen. Just scroll down.
