Question

Box 16 on 1099-R is empty. This gives an error and says it can't be empty and must be equal to or greater than the tax amount withheld by the state (box 14).

My 1099-R has been identical for years. This is the first time TurboTax flagged it.

    You should enter the same amount that is in box 2a of your 1099-R in box 16.
