I am also wondering this. My actual taxable income meets the requirement. But, the State requests a copy of all 1099s as shown in the FAQ that @KrisD15 linked. My spouse did two 401(k) rollovers directly into a traditional IRA in 2025. The two 1099s regarding the rollovers specify that the money wasn't taxable (box 7 has a "G"). But, the State's documentation doesn't say anything about that situation. And the form instructions don't indicate that we should exclude those 1099s or how we would document that - it just asks for the total amounts in the 1099s. Going through the steps in TT, it's telling us that our income is equal to the whole total of *all* the 1099s - it's not subtracting the two rollovers. Is this a bug? Or is Missouri really counting rollovers we didn't touch as income?

It is possible that you selected yes on the 'Do you live in one of these foreign countries' question. If you selected Yes there, the income would show as non-taxable.

normally you would go to the fund company to get their year-end supplement which has the %s by every state, but I do see Fidelity has that info for funds (handy!) and for one example I have at least, it ties back to the %s from the fund company. you can also do the same check against your funds' supplements. according to the footnotes... *Tax-Exempt Interest percentage provided is based on your legal State residency. **US Territory percentage is the total per fund of all US Territorial interest earned in tax year 2025. Most states (if not all? - not sure) include US territories (Puerto Rico etc) as exempt from state tax along with your home state. The only rub is TT doesn't have a bucket for that it has the individual territories but you could probably just enter it all as Puerto Rico, or get the actual breakdown from the fund company and enter for each territory. Puerto Rico can be a big portion of some funds' dividends as their yields are high. In the supplemental questions you would need to select "I earned tax-exempt interest in more than one state." and then fill in your home state, and the US territories, and the rest you input as "Multiple States" so it adds back up to the total on the 1099. Check the outcome on your state return as an addition to income for what is taxable in your state, sometimes this entry screen can be buggy. When you said you added up all the %s did you mean that literally... you need the average % i.e. you need to multiply the % for each fund by the exempt income distributed by that fund in Box 12 to get the $ amount exempt per fund and total those. You can then determine the average % exempt if you need that, or just enter the total $ amount by state/territory into TT. It's nice that Fidelity at least provides the %s but if you have multiple funds you'll still to do some math.

That's super helpful, thank you. What is the best mechanism for getting notified when the form update is released?

You are required to take annual beneficiary RMDs because you are an EDB, not because the decedent died after their Required Beginning Date for RMDs. Because the decedent died after their RBD, you are not permitted to opt into the 10-year rule. For what follows, I will assume that this inheritance was truly from an employer pension plan as you say and not from an IRA. Regarding the determination of your 2026 RMD, if the plan value on 12/31/2025 was zero, the distribution of your share had to have been made in 2025 and you should have received a 2025 code 4G form 1099-R reporting the distribution. The amount in box 1 of that Form 1099-R would be the 2025 year-end value because the value change while it is not invested. If the distribution was actually made in 2026 and will be reported on a 2026 Form 1099-R, the plan was required to pay your 2026 beneficiary RMD to you before rolling over the remainder. If they made the distribution in 2026 and rolled the entire amount over to the inherited IRA, the inherited IRA now contains an excess contribution equal to the amount of the RMD that was not permitted to be rolled over. (If the plan was actually an IRA-based plan, the movement of the funds to the inherited IRA is a nonreportable trustee-to-trustee transfer. Given that the plan had a $0 balance on 12/31/2025 and the funds were deposited into the inherited IRA in 2026, implying that the transfer was in progress on 12/31/2025, the year-end value would be the value deposited since the value cannot change while not invested.)

How do I show on a 1041 that I distributed income using the 65 day rule (cash distribution in 2026 but applied to 2025)?

You enter that as an investment sale, listing the sales proceeds as $0 and the cost what you paid for them.
You enter investment sales in the Wages and Income section of TurboTax, then Investment Income, then Stocks, cryptocurrency, Mutual Funds, Bonds, etc... Skip the section where it asks if you want to upload your tax documents. Choose Digital Assets as the type of investment you want to enter. You'll come to a screen where you can enter in your sales proceeds and cost basis.

Since you had a penalty, the program pivots to ask different questions. As you go through the GA interview, it asks if you were a resident the year before and amount of2024 GA tax paid. The next screen asks when you want to pay so the penalty can be calculated. It asks when you will pay.
That answer to your 2024 tax liability goes to the underpayment penalty, line 4. If your return was imported, there could have been some corrupt data. Otherwise, it would be what you entered. My guess is the import has
Next steps:
Determine if you want to file an amended return to update the penalty form once the original is accepted. You have 3 years to file.
Carefully check your tax return before filing.
Always save a copy of all forms and worksheets to your computer when filing - definitely before and after amending.
There is a possibility that GA will catch the mistake and correct the form.
You can file a claim for the accuracy guarantee. Scroll to the bottom and select the most recent year. Your explanation and paperwork will show the correct information.

Thank you for your reply. What I needed up doing was entering the 7/4/1991 date and manually inputting 23 months and then 319 months after 1991. That came close to the way that I had manually calculated the subtraction amount for my state tax information. It didn’t kick me out or tell me I had an error. I can document all of my federal service should I ever get audited. They don’t make it easy!! Now I am wondering if I should go and do amended returns for however far I can go back. I also spoke with someone at the Oregon department of revenue who helped me calculate the percentage which was 7% of my federal pension income. The way I input the numbers seems to be pretty close to that figure when calculated manually. We shall see!! It would be easier if Turbo Tax told you to input the numbers seems of months before and after 10/1/1991. That seems to be easier to understand.

@phdstudentb , while my colleague @DaveF1006 answers your continuing question(s)/doubts etc., the difference between J-1 and F-1 exemption ( in addition to J-1 being allowed multiple times with some conditions, F-1 being once in a life time) , is how the year is count,
For F-1 you count the full year for the year of entry i.e. an F-1 student entering in Sept 2023, still counts 2023 as the full first year of the five year.
In contrast for J-1 you count the actual 365 days per year i.e. If a J-1 starts in July 22nd of 2023, the first year of the two year is on the anniversary or July 21st of 2024 is the end of first year..
The example 10 that you mentioned , does a similar look/analysis.
Does that make sense ?

It is not likely that investment sales reflecting long-term gains could show in the short-term gain section of Schedule D without there being errant entries during the Form 1099-B entries. I suggest you review you investment sale entries and focus on the ones that list dates that reflect short-term sales of one year or less. There must be long-term sales entered incorrectly as short-term sales. If you find duplicate entries, you need to delete them.

Before you amend, make sure that your original return has been fully processed by the IRS, this means that you have received your refund or that you have already paid if you had a balance. Make sure that you do have to amend a return, calculation issues are usually resolved by the IRS. Some of the most common situations where you would need to amend are if you missed a credit, need to add/remove a dependent, change your filing status, or add additional income.
To amend your return:
Log in to your TurboTax account
Go to Tax Home
On the FAQ's on the right side, select How do I amend my return?
The option of Amend Using TurboTax will show, select it.
The program will guide you as you make the changes necessary, you do not need to enter anything other than what you are changing.
Feel free to reach back if you have additional questions.
