State tax filing
If you are getting an error message with regard to needing an amount in Form 1099-R box 16 because there were state withholdings reported, enter the amount reported in box 1 of your Form 1099-R for the state distribution amount box 16.
This should correct the error you are seeing without affecting the actual tax return.
