It's best to go back to the actual 1099-DIV and answer the follow-up questions there in the interview...do NOT try to enter the codes and distribution in the Error check.

Theya are asking about which states bonds produced the $$ In box 12.
For a CA resident, they cannot claim any of it came from CA unless the bond fund that produced those $$ held at least 50% of it's assets in CA Municipal bonds. Most fund companies have special CA-specific bond funds for CA, and if you don't have one, then it must all be assigned to "Multiple States"

See below on how to make the correct selection on the follow-up page.
1) First picture is how to set all of box 12 to "Multiple States"...that is if you don't have any CA-specific Bond Funds (or a fund that happens to have more than 50% of assets in CA Muni's)
2) Second picture is how to break out CA if you do happen to own a CA-Specific fund (ignore the PR entry...that's only for folks living in states where there are not restrictions like CA's)
