No....when in error check mode, Put in "XX"
...Just Enter an "XX" to get thru the error.
then go study the situation. The "XX" just means "More than one state"
____________________________________________
Example for a person living in NC:
When you get a 1099-DIV with $$ in box 10, you need to edit that form to indicate what states issued the Bonds that produced those $$. On a 1099-DIV, that is usually "More than one state" because whatever Mutual fund holdings you have will also hold bonds from a whole bunch of states
There are exceptions of course: IF the bond fund you hold had some NC bonds in it, you can break-out that sub-part and not get taxed on the NC-only bonds, but usually, it's not worth the effort unless Box 10 is really large.
Example: On a 1099-DIV, Box 10 = $1000. You review your brokerage information, and they say that 2% came from NC-Issued bonds. so that's $20. NC taxes at ~5%, so if you break out that NC-only amount, you will save $20x0.05=$1 of NC taxes.
The same calculation applies to any box 8 $$ on a 1099-INT form.
But usually, "More than one state" is easiest until the amounts get to be worthwhile for you to do the extra work.
