I'd suggest calling Customer Support and get them to check it out.  Need someone who has eh PA software to check it out.  I know the PA software had a similar issue a few years ago...maybe it's back:

This is apparently STILL a bug for 2021.  After listing out all 50 states worth of exempt-interest income separately  from box 11 in the federal section, the PA state form is pulling the full 1099-DIV box 11 number AND then insisting  it should not be tax exempt (neither being right).  When I talked to customer support, I was told I'd be forwarded to someone who could help, then my ticket was closed. Not sure where to go from here.

CALL THEM AGAIN  don't give up..it has to be corrected.

BUT first...do NOT single out every state, you only single out your Own state and any US territories, and the remainder is lumped together as "Multiple States" (if using the online software or "More than one state" if using the Desktop software.

 

Example for a 1099-DIV with  box 11 at $1000, and a resident of PA

 

PA...............................$150

PR.................................$50     (where PR=Puerto Rico)

Multiple States..........$800

Thanks!  That is much easier to input.  Wish I'd noticed "multiple states" before.  Sadly - making that update did not fix the PA state pull over amount glitch - but still pleased to have figured that out.
