Massachusetts DFML 1099-G Refund

I received payments for Paid Medical Leave in Massachusetts in 2025.

Box 1 is BLANK.

None of the benefits are subject to Federal or State taxation because I work for a company with fewer than 25 employees.

There were both federal and state taxes withheld from payments that are due to be refunded.

Turbotax will not accept a blank or zero value for the input of Box 1 during the error check process and will not e-file. 

I do not want to enter these amounts as other taxes paid, because then I cannot e-file my MA return and I have already paid the fee. 

This is a Turbotax software error that needs to be fixed.

Thank you!

Yes, try entering a "1" so that TurboTax will recognize there is a value and allow you to efile.
