Hi,

In Deductions, Line 1 ("Amount you paid in 2023 to Social Security (FICA) ... Non-Mass Portion"), TurboTax flagged a zero (0) as an error. However, I am unable to solve the issue.

Here's the reason for the zero:

Box 4 (Federal Income Tax Withheld) and Box 6 (Social Security Wages) on my W-2 form are both blank. This indicates that I did not earn wages subject to Massachusetts Social Security withholding. Therefore, Line 1 on the worksheet should indeed be left blank or contain a zero (0).

Would you please advise on the best way to proceed?
