I am filing jointly as a non-resident in MA. I have submitted twice, and it failed for the same reason. When I attempt to fix the error, it just says it’s fixed with no action being taken on my part. I looked over the form that’s being submitted, and I don’t see anything relevant to personal property or rental incomes.

My token is 1177603

Based on the number of responses in this thread, it seems like a platform issue. Likely related to the non-resident MA form.
