To clear the error, you need to include the box 1 amount in box 16.  If you inputted a 1099R for NYS with only box 14, go back and edit the 1099R to include the box 1 amount in box 16.  If there is no dollar amount in box 14 (state tax withheld) then all boxes 14-16 must be blank.

 

To get back and edit your 1099-R, please follow the instructions below:

  1. Open your return. 
  2. Search 1099-R with the magnifying glass tool on top of the page.
  3. Click on the Jump to 1099-R link at the top of the results.
  4. Click Review next to your 1099-R and edit your input.

Thank you for this!  I had no problem when I filed 2022's taxes, but I had it this year (2023).  Thanks to you, I have now filed successfully.
