You said you received a duplicate 1099 DIV. Are they from the same financial institution Check the Payer TIN (Second line on the left), are they the same? Is one a corrected copy. (you can see this at the top of the form)If all of the information is exactly the same you should only post one of them. If there are from different financial institutions, and one isn't posted as corrected, you should post both.

OR...perhaps you received a 1099-DIV form that same issuer last year, and imported it again this year?

Yeah, an empty 1099-DIV would be brought into the software from whatever you filed last year, so you either need to just delete the extra 1099-DIV.....especially if you imported your -DIV this year as it doesn't automatically overwrite last year's empty form.
