Hi,
I tried the suggested approach but realized that does not really make the error go away. The refund shown on various forms is still non-zero, i.e., it is as transferred from TT2020.
And in tax terms I think it means that I did overpay and simply decided to apply $0 to 2021 taxes, thus the rest would need to be dealt with later.
My error was purely a data entry type of error.
I am not going to amend 2019 return just to fix the carry-over amount. The amount of tax paid is correct.
It is only the overpayment amount that is incorrect: TT'21 shows it as non-zero but the state told me it was $0.
How do I fix it then?
Also, why would overriding the State Refund amount prevent me from e-filing? Is this due to some internal check?
The method of last resort would be not to transfer data from last years's taxes but enter it by hand.
Could you, please, advise me how to proceed?
Thank you so much.
