I am a retired widower from Indiana receiving SS and Pensions. I provide the same input to the online TT program as always, nothing changes from year to year. But for the first time in about eight years being with TT using the same 1099s, etc. year after year for me, TT suddenly says while I can efile my Federal, I have to mail my State Return! Nothing I can see has changed from previous years. They present me with this cryptic message...
Well, it looks like you have a tax situation in the Indiana return that makes it ineligible for efiling.
Reason for efile ineligibility:
At least two of the three withholding amounts (Federal Income Tax Withholding, State Income Tax Withholding, and Local Income Tax Withholding ) on 1099-R have the same dollar amount.
Huh?! I have gone back and checked Fed and State and several times. Compared it to previous years. I have no idea what they are talking about. I'm not very good at taxes, but have had no issues up until now. This year's is practically a carbon copy of previous years. I'm done, I'm paid, and I want to efile both together. What can I do? Could it be a glitch in their program? MUST I snail mail my Indiana State return? Will TT provide me with the completed Indiana return for mailing it if I have to?
