Get your taxes done using TurboTax

This has been the solution to the most common school district error.  Please follow the steps below.

 

Your return was rejected for E-File for having missing information on Federal form 1099R. 

 

Go to the Federal 1099R screen under Retirement plans and social security. 

 

At the bottom of the screen under State and Local information if box 14 state tax withheld or Box 17 Local tax withheld is greater than zero, then Box 15 State ID is OH box 15 payer ID is complete and State or local distribution must have a value greater than the state or local tax withheld.

 

If there is state withholding State distribution must have a value greater than the state w/H. If the state or local tax does not have an amount, then do not complete this section of the 1099R. 

 

Do not put zeroes in the tax withheld or distribution fields. If necessary, make the appropriate change and re-submit this return electronically. 

 

However, if the reject continues, you may want to file this return via U.S. Mail. 

 

To file your state return, print it and mail it to the appropriate taxing authority.
