State Tax review error

capnbobl1011 — Mon, 03 Mar 2025 15:09:45 GMT

When reviewing my Fed and State (Massachusetts) returns I get one CHECK ENTRY which instructs me to the State Name or Other Jurisdiction on the Credit for Income Taxes Paid to Other Jurisdictions Worksheet. The Box A is check. And the STATE Name is highlighted in PINK All other fields are blank and yellow.

I made NO payments to any other jurisdiction. I select (No Entry) from the States or Other Jurisdictions list but it does not fill. It stays blank and pink. I am unable to uncheck Box A.

How do I solve this error?

Please clarify your question.

Are their any states other than Massachusetts listed on the return?
You said "Name in Pink" Was that AM, Some other state or blank?

Please contact us again to provide some additional details.

I was able to determine that the form was more than likely generated due to FOREIGN TAX CREDIT.

I have currently deleted the form as it is not needed. I was able to take the small Foreign Tax Credit as a deduction in Federal Schedule A. This action allowed the review to complete and I am now ready to file. I hope.

Thanks,
