Retirement tax questions

My understanding is that NY state/local pension exclusion is not limited to 20K.  It is not state taxable, period.  What works for me on 1099R (after much trial and error) is:

Box14 - leave blank

Box15 - leave as is

Box 16 - make it 0.

Also check the NY Pension/Annuity worksheet to make sure everything is as it should be.


If no tax withheld in box 14 the leave all boxed 14-16 BLANK.
