I won’t have a 1099R form yet and will not get that until next year. The 1099R will have my combined 2024 and 2025 RMD on it and the taxes withheld for the combined total. Don’t I need the 1099R form for the amended form? Thank you for the help. 

If you file MFS, you will have to file two GA tax returns if the rental income belongs to both of you.  Did you change your residence to NJ legally?  If so, you won't be able to file a GA resident tax return.

Are you amending your New York return?   Sounds like you are being asked to type in a reason why you are amending......  Are you using TurboTax Online?   If you are using desktop, switch to Forms Mode (click on Forms in the upper right corner) and go to the form with the red exclamation mark and fixed the error there.   

You don't need to do anything other than whatever the IRS notice tells you to do.   The IRS already fixed it on your return.   Because you marked it yes, that caused a zero to be entered on Line 6 when there should have been an amount.   You can prepare the amendment in TurboTax, but you don't need to file it as your return was already adjusted.  The IRS adjusted line 6b from zero to the correct amount, which increased your taxable income and therefore, reduced the amount of your refund.     

Wait---what "activation code?"    Do you mean the 16 digit license code for the desktop download?   There is no activation code for online TurboTax.  If you have a license key it is for the desktop download to use on a full PC or Mac.    The difference this year is that instead of using a CD to install desktop you just download the software to your hard drive.        HOW DO I GET STARTED WITH TT DESKTOP   https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/license-information/install-turbotax-cd-download-software-license-code/L1wFOSXur_US_en_US?uid=m5zp8c5h
