Question

Turbo Tax is requiring an amount from box 16 on my Ohio Public Emp Ret Sys 1099-R. My 1099-R does not have a box 16. What do I put in the box?

The program will not allow me to continue without a value.  The box is labeled "State distribution".

Your 1099-R should have a Box 16 - are you sure you have a 1099-R.    It is usually the amount in box 1 of your 1099-R or it may be $0 if you reside in a state with no income tax.    If it is blank, leave it blank.
