If you are referring to a W-2 and you have no reason to believe state wages differ from federal just enter in box 16 the same value as Box 1.

If you don't have any taxes withheld on your 1099-R form in box 14, leave boxes 14,15 and 16 empty. If Box 14 shows State Tax withheld,  enter the amount from Box 1.
