Entering a 1099R in the "step by step" view of the federal return. The pickup contribution is listed on the Maryland 1099 in box 19. The state pickup contribution in Box 19 does not carry over to the State Form. I think it's supposed to be Box 17 in any case (see discussions that have been going on since at least March 2021 on this board). But that doesn't carry over either.
There's a Pickup Contribution Adjustment page on the Maryland return which says "You must enter any pickup contribution in the federal return on your 1099-R, Box 19 for pension payments received from the state of Maryland retirement system". I had to manually entered it into Form 502SU.
It seems this issue has been going of for years and I wonder if many Maryland state retirees are missing out on a sizeable refund by not having the pickup recognized from the 1099-R.
