Check your W2, 1099-G and any other tax form entries that have Colorado tax withholding.  Correct any errors. 

 

If you autoloaded any forms that have Colorado withholding (like a W-2 or 1099-R or 1099-G), then make a copy of the information on the form, delete the form, and re-enter the form manually.

 

Note that this is almost always a typographical error or the result of an error in data entry.

 

If all of your entries are correct, you will not be able to efile and will have to mail the return - but try to avoid this by deleting and re-adding as much as is required in order to get the e-file to go through.

BillM233,

 

Many thanks for your answer on this question - my return has been rejected twice now for this same error.

 

My question is more about TurboTax itself.  The first time my CO return was rejected, I signed back into TurboTax and it gave me a link to click that appeared to say that it would correct the error (my apologies, I don't remember exactly what it said).  I went through the return, went back to the W-2s and 1099s and all of the numbers matched what was in the TurboTax state return Form 104, including Line 20.

 

What am I missing?  The software simply pulls the info in from entered (imported) W-2s and 1099s.  The math all adds up.

 

Also, now it doesn't appear to have that link that I mentioned before (about correcting the error).  Do I have to pay now to file again electronically?

 

Thanks in advance,


Rick

Follow on question - I've deleted the form (Form 104), but it won't let me manually re-enter the information.  Again, what am I missing here?  I clicked delete the form, it took me to the Form 104 info sheet, but it doesn't allow me to manually enter the information.  

 

I'd really appreciate any help you can give me
