NYS Tax Retirement

[nblane46]

When filing my NYS Tax Turbo Tax transfers my NYS Pension income from the federal return.  Since my Pension is Exempt from NYS Tax how do I delete this income from my state tax form on Turbo Tax?

In the Federal section....You need to edit the 1099-R, and enter the State distribution amount (Box 2a, if non-zero or not blank,  or the box 1 $$ amount) into box 16.

Then on the follow-up page, you select the NY state Retirment source, that applies to yours.  That should do it....but the box 16 value is the one that gets removed from NY Income.

The follow-up page should look something like this

(from a prior year and might have changed some)
