MN State return SSN

mitchell-loukusa — Thu, 06 Jun 2019 00:36:38 GMT

I'm a little puzzled, because when turbotax.com is conducting it's 'final check's it tells me I can't directly input my SSN on my MN State Return, and I should remove it. Then once I remove it and click continue, it conducts another 'final check' and tells me I need to input my SSN. It also gives the option of printing and submitting by mail, but I am overseas and that option is not convenient, and it seems like there should be a solution. Does anyone know how to get around this?

Apparently, your SSN was not properly entered on the federal return when the state return was created and the data was imported.

TurboTax tells you (correctly) that you need to have your SS number for your state return. It then offers a box and a worksheet to enter the SSN. Then, when you enter the SSN, it tells you "You can't do that here."

Obviously, this doesn't make any sense.

What you need to do is:

erase this entry in the state return (because you won't be able to finish the state review so long as this entry is here).
jump to your personal info on your federal return.
add the missing information, like your SSN.
then return to the state return and see if the state return will clear the review.

If that doesn't clear the state return, then you may have to delete the state return and re-enter it, so that the personal information on the federal return will be carried to the state afresh.
