1099R form

My 1099R form says state tax withheld is $850, my gross distribution is $17000.    Turbo tax keeps telling me the 850 is incorrect and won't let me file -- how do I fix it.   I know it is correct

    Do you have an amount in box 16 ?  If you have withholding in box 14 then for box 16 enter the same amount as in box 1.


    box 16 showed 0.00 -- I have corrected == thank you

    What is the exact entire error message from TurboTax? TurboTax has no way of knowing whether $850 is the correct amount of state tax that was withheld.

    entire message was  "state tax withheld must not be larger than gross distribution"
