NY non-resident form picking up NJ box 14 entry

MFJ. NJ residents. One spouse works in NJ, other works in NY. NY preventing me from efiling (NY-non-resident return) because on NJ W2 box 14, there's a 414(h) entry which I enter in software, but it appears that NY is picking it up and saying that "other" is not a valid entry and I need to print and mail the NY return. The box 14 entry has nothing to do with NY. I believe it's a turbo tax software issue. please copnfirm.

Correct- if the 414(h) entry applies to New Jersey, you can omit it on the W2 Box 14 entry so that you can efile.

Thank you. I did that already.

Will the software be updated to correct this error so I don't have to manually update for this?
