I entered the 1099-R Information, but TT has several more boxes than I have. My 1099-R only has up to 9b. So, I left the rest blank.
But, going through the step-by-step, I am at the screen in Personal Income under Retirement that asks "Where Is This Distribution From? Kansas Public Employees."
I have selected Employer-sponsored pension plan or qualified IRA, but then there is a box for Arkansas Distribution Amount, Arkansas Withholding, and Payer's AR State ID No.
When I go to forms, TT has automatically entered AR into the 1099-R box 15 Payer's State, but the KPERS pension is from Kansas. I am very confused.
I don't know if I'm supposed to have KS in box 15 or what to put in the empty boxes on this screen. Should I have entered Kansas in box 15 in the 1099-R even though I don't have that box on my physical form? Am I supposed to put the full amount in the ARknasas Distribution Amount, zero, or $6,000?

1099-R Retirement income is only taxable according to the laws in the state you live in when the $$ were sent out....not the state where it was accumulated or where it came "from".

As such, "AR" back-filled into box 15 would be appropriate...and the state distribution amount (box 16) is usually the same as the value in box 2a, OR...if 2a is empty, or "Undetermined" it is the same as the Federally-taxable portion of the box 1 value.

Usually, if a state exempts a portion of any retirement income, it is handled separately from the 1099-R itself, sometimes it is automatic, or sometimes it is dealt with during the State interview, where it gets chopped down from the initially-entered. state distribution amount . BUT...I don't have the AR software myself, so I don't know exactly how it ends up being dealt with the AR software.
