Retirement tax questions

Wow ok. Thanks for the info. I did end up entering the amount that way I just wasn't sure about submitting it like that since there was no info about that exemption listed in TT. 

 

Do you know what format the statement would need to be in? Does it have to be something from the state? Birth Cert? We have a verification of Birth from that was issued by the hospital but it doesn't have the SSN on it.
