Alabama Code AL40-050 is a rejection on your return because your total Alabama Wages must equal the total amount of all State Wages (including Wages Earned Out of State) as reported in Box 16 of the Federal 1040 W-2.
The first thing you want to do is make sure you've filled out the Personal Info section correctly:
- With your return open, select My Info in the left-hand menu.
- Then, on the Personal info summary screen, scroll down to Other State Income, and select Edit.
- At the Did you make money in any other states? question, answer Yes and make sure your nonresident state is selected from the drop-down.
- Select Continue to return to your Personal info summary.
Now, what does your W-2 state? Is there anything in Boxes 15-17?
If not, then choose Florida in the dropdown box (Box 15) and enter their federal payer ID (as shown in Box b). Then, add your wages in Box 16. This will fix your error and you will be able to refile your return.
