Retirement tax questions
Return to the entry screen for that 1099R and enter the number from Box 1 again in Box 16 for "state tax distribution". You will do this on the federal entry areas under Wages and Income.
The DFAS 1099-R doesn't actually have a box 16 on it (which is why I imagine it wasn't entered) but you can safely put the federal number in that space in TurboTax.
Once you've updated that, you can retransmit the return.
