What am I doing wrong? My pennyslvania pension is not taxable in my state and it is showing up as taxable income on my pennsylavania taxes.
I am completing the federal but my state is showing my PA pension as income.

While you are preparing the PA state return make the correct selection on your Form 1099R, if your box 7, is coded with a 7-normal pension distribution. See the image attached.

Retirement tax questions
There is something wrong with the NY State and City Education pensions ... I have a call into support now but it is showing up as taxable in NY state as well when it never was when I went back to 2018 program, it had changed my entry to US Government (pension) so I think whatever is wrong is something they did in an update. From what I can read it should Not be taxable in NY (sorry not sure about PA)

I'm having a similar problem. My NYS teacher pension is correctly entered on my Federal return. It should transfer onto my NYS return as a New York deduction for government pensions, but instead it is being deducted under the category "New York deduction for other pensions." The bottom line is I AM getting my deduction for my pension on my state return, but it is appearing on the wrong line. The end result is t he same ($0 taxable), but I am concerned that it is appearing on the wrong line of my state return, as it should be listed under New York deduction for government pension, which is where it has appeared in prior years.
