Get your taxes done using TurboTax

I think what LindaS is saying is you cannot exclude ANY of the dividends from NY state taxable income since NY is one of three states that requires the fund hold at least 50% US Debt Obligations at the end of each quarter, which the Federal Money Market fund does not do. You would need to switch to the Treasury Money Market Fund which meets the threshold to avoid at least some of the tax in NY.

 

I also agree with you,enter the AMOUNT and not the percent. You would calculate the amount based on the percentage, but in this case I dont think it matters since NY would tax it all.
