Hi, I am getting the same annoying message with NJ FLI cannot be greater than 29. I have 30.33 as the amount. Do I go forward and file anyway?

Re: Annoying error check message of NJ FLI cannot be greater than 29 - How do i get rid of it

Yes, go forward with filing. No, depending on your circumstances, Form 2450 may not be necessary. You may need to go to your employer for reimbursement, instead, if you only had one employer.
