I m retired, part-time NY state resident with a non-qualified deferred compensation plan from my original employer. The proceeds are reported on a W2 in box 1 and box 11. On my NY State return, it looks like Turbo tax is correctly reporting this income on form IT-203 form, line 16 (line 1 is zero) but everytime I try to electronically file my NY state return, it gets rejected by NY state because "NYS Wages should not be equal to zero when W2 shows NY wages." Fed return was electronically filed with no issues. Does anyone know how to fix this problem? Did I miss a box to check somewhere?
