Retirement tax questions

My 1099-R information is correctly entered on my Federal Return.  On the Massachusetts Return, I can't resolve an error loop that continues to make my pension exempt.  It is not exempt from Mass taxes.   On the Mass form, there is a $20,000 deduction taken from schedule Y, line 19 - for the reciprocity with NYS.  I have tried for several hours, and spoken to two turbo reps, and haven't been given a solution.  I filed last year with turbo and it worked fine.  After I make the correction, I go through the review cycle, and it gives me an error to fix - it seems to place my whole pension amount in an exempt status, and I can't correct this.  Help!
