Thanks for the explanation, @nmb10605! That's extremely helpful to know. Like @mgdanna, if I download my return and look at the numbers on the state forms, it shows the appropriate 1/3 of my total distribution since I'm spreading the tax payments out over 3 years.
So frustrating that basically our forms are accurate, but because of the worksheet and the bug that doesn't tell TurboTax that the tax obligation is appropriately carried over from federal to state, we can't file yet.
Anyway. Waiting till March 19 to see what we see. I was starting to look and see if any other tax prep options out there would allow you to file just the state return, but it seems like they all want you to pay for/file both state and federal. I suppose they probably allow you to pick to file just the state return, but it seems like a waste to pay for both, when I've already paid for both here on TurboTax.
