How do I change the type for a retirement income entry on my state return?

[smbarnes54]

I try to change the "type" for one of my Retirement Income entries on my state return to P , but TurboTax keeps changing it back to N. How do I fix this?

I had a similar problem for my state  (NC)

The fix for mine, was to make sure my state's two letters (NC in my case) were in box 15 first...before switching the code letters.

BUT...it really should be done using the interview, and making a selection in a follow-up page after the main 1099-R form.

Of course, it could depend on a change in the state coding rules.   

My state used to have a "P" for public service retirement forms (Teachers, Municipal, County and State employeess) ...but eliminated it a number of years ago.
