State tax filing

I am a little confused. The 1099-R is from NYS & local Employer Retirement Systems. I entered the information as the form has it, removed everything in boxes 14-16 as stated. The source I used "other pensions of New York State or governments". It went from owing 204 to getting 1550 from New York State. It is exempt from New York State Tax. I'm just not sure I chose the right source. If I use 457 it has the person I am doing taxes for owing. Any suggestions. Scoured the internet to see if I have the source correct or not.
