State tax filing

Hi @CatinaT1 , I wanted to give you an update.  I did not file yet and I was able to make it work review wise with no further errors.  But I wanted to let you know what I did.  So I followed your instruction on check-marking "Nontaxable Medicaid waiver payments" in uncommon situations and I entered the amount of Medicaid Waiver Payments into the box asking for the total amount of difficulty of care payment received from IHHS (same amount reported in Boxes 3 and 5 of the W-2).

 

I then entered $1 in Box 1.  But I ran into a problem.  I actually have two of these W2's (two different people, same household) so I have the same situation.  The system did not like that both W2's said $1 in Box 1.  I talked to a person or two here and they recommended I proceed with $1 for one and $2 for the other for Box 1 if I wanted to be able to e-file and get around the error message.  That along with the steps above actually took care of the error message and I no longer receive it.  Just wanted to see what you thought and ask you if I should handle this differently?

 

Thanks again!
