Is anyone else having a problem with turbotax online now asking to check (revise) what are valid entries from form 1099-R (Box 14a, when there is only a box 14) ?

When I ran the program a few weeks ago, it did not flag this as a problem, but now it does. The amount I have in box 14 is correct. The error message I get says 'Box14a For electronic filing, New York State withholdings can not be greater than or equal to gross distributions or state distributions'. There is a box 14, but no 14A on my 1099-R and the amount there IS less than the gross distribution amount entered.

I have spent too much time on this. I have gone over everything and the NYS tax directions. Something is wrong. It is not a complicated calculation to figure out the NYS tax. What is the answer?
