You are correct, retirement income should be excluded on a Mississippi state tax return.
Please try these steps to clear any entries that could be causing your Mississippi retirement income to be included in taxable income:
- Remove your State of Mississippi tax return.
- Delete the 1099R in your Federal return.
- Add the 1099R back again.
- The retirement income should be excluded.
Here is how to delete forms:
- Open or continue your return in TurboTax.
- In the left menu, select Tax Tools and then Tools.
- In the pop-up window Tool Center, choose Delete a form.
- Select Delete next to the form/schedule/worksheet in the list and follow the instructions.
