NY 1099-G EWF benefits e-file
I'm working on a NY Tax return that has a 1099-G Grant Payment, when the Federal and State tax form is completed and the analysis is run I get the following error/exception: "Not Eligible for Electronic Filing - Returns with a 1099G that does not have unemployment on line 1. These rules are set by the New York State Department of Taxation and Finance."
However, when I go to the NY Department of Taxation and Finance I read the following information regarding 1099G EWF payments:
"You must report EWF benefits when you file your federal and state income tax returns.
If you are e-filing your return, your software should prompt you to enter all the information from your Form 1099-G, including Box 6. If it does not, contact your software company for assistance."
So, what gives, why is TurboTax not allowing the e-filing when NY DT&F allows for it to take place?
