Hi,
In Deductions, Line 1 ("Amount you paid in 2023 to Social Security (FICA) ... Non-Mass Portion"), TurboTax flagged a zero (0) as an error. However, I am unable to solve the issue.
Here's the reason for the zero:
Box 4 (Federal Income Tax Withheld) and Box 6 (Social Security Wages) on my W-2 form are both blank. This indicates that I did not earn wages subject to Massachusetts Social Security withholding. Therefore, Line 1 on the worksheet should indeed be left blank or contain a zero (0).
Would you please advise on the best way to proceed?

Hi, Thank you so much for your response.
If the zero is coming from the w2s, you will need to see if you can make that a blank. Otherwise, file federal and then you will need to mail in MA.
