We live in Massachusetts but my wife's retirement is from South Carolina Retirement System (she was an employee of a state university). The federal portion of TurboTax has a screen regarding Massachusetts handling of these funds and asks if it is a Qualified Government Retirement Distributions, or a Keogh account, or none of the above. Which of these applies? She also has received funds for three years from deferred compensation (unused personal days/sick leave) that were put in a 401k account when she retired. Which of the categories would this apply toward? By the way, I asked this same question of MA Department of Revenue and the response was "it depends what kind of account it was."
