My public employer used a W-2 Box 14 description of PRETAX for the taxable value of RSUs vested in the current year for which I already paid NY taxes through payroll deduction. I am getting a Box 14 identification error - NYS does not allow the description selected for the NY public employee retirement contribution code entered (ERS, NYRET, RET, NYSERS). To e-file successfully you must choose either "NY IRC 414H Subject to NY tax' or 'NY IRC 414H NY tax exempt' from the picklist. NYS does not allow 'other - not on the above list. How do I rectify this?
