Appreciate your response....Yes understand it was a hypothetical figure and not present on W2; but how would one compute that figure? I took the difference between Lines 1a and 1b on 1099DIV but that may be too much. For instance, my 1a is 17k and 1b is 11k with a difference of 6k but my line 13 of Tax Exempt dividends is only $3600, So probably not a good assumption since I'm reducing it by roughly twice. Then again maybe I am not entitled to reduce it, how would one know that?
