Hi there,
Yes I did discover that when I was going over line by line with a teacher who belongs to the NY State teacher retirement system and he was not having the issue. So I did go ahead and click on the other option as you described and saw that the $20k was not longer an issue.
I am sure that many NY State employees will go ahead and file not even realizing the problem. BUT Turbo tax "GUARANTEES" they are correct. I am not sure that that means they will cough up the money people will owe nor compensate anyone for the extra time and aggravation this is causing but hopefully they will cover any interest or penalties.
After spending so much of my time trying to convince them that they were wrong, I am EXTREMELY disappointed in turbo tax.
Thanks for the info.
