I have to file a MA return and it does not populate correctly with the K-1 Form 1041 dividends in Schedule B of the Federal form.  I need the number to be in the form for the trust so MA doesn't think the income is zero.  Should I override TT and delete the trust dividends from Schedule B and put them on the trust form?  Is there a better way to make sure both my Fed and MA returns are correct?

My federal and state tax returns were rejected with the rejection code "TY25_HSA - There is a potential issue related to HSA, MSA Contributions." How do I fix it? I followed instructions provided by TurboTax and resubmitted but got rejected again.  

Hi,   The following is from the NJ worksheet "Pensions Wks-TP" (Pensions, Annuities and IRA Withdrawals) for a Traditional to Roth IRA conversion (not backdoor): Column A Gross Distribution Amount: $5,500 Column B Federal Taxable Amount: $5,500 Column D Value on Date of Distribution: $150,000 Column E Contributions Previously Taxed: $0 Column F Earnings and Contributions Not Previously Taxed: $150,000 Column G Distribution Percentage: 0.0357 Column H Taxable Amount: $5,505   Columns D and E are input through interview questions, the rest are auto populated.   The calculations seem to be: (Column F) = (Column D) - (Column E) (Column G) = (Column A) / (Column D) (Column H) = (Column F) * (Column G)   In this case, Column H above is greater than Colum A, which is incorrect. The taxable amount cannot be more than the converted amount.   This seems to be due to rounding Column G to 4 decimal places. To get the correct result, it needs to be rounded to 8 or more decimal places in this case. Rounding can create error and is acceptable if it is small. But the result in this case is incorrect.   Can someone please confirm this? If so, what is the solution?   Thanks.
