How do I fix an error on a Turbo Tax generated form? Shows MA instead of CT.

Please clarify your question.

• Describe the issue?
• Do you have W-2 entries for either or both states?
• Which state is incorrect?
• Do you live or work in either, or both states?

Please contact us again to provide some additional details.

It is for the 1099-INT form and was flagged on review for "wrong zip code." 

I work in one state and live in another. The state I work in expects to see their state listed so it was filled out. I cannot update it to the state I live in so the address is incorrect and the zip code is considered incorrect but it is my address. I just want to correct the form but cannot find how to do that.

You'll need to delete the form and then start over.  Instead of having the TurboTax system import the 1099-INT from the bank you'll need to click "Ill enter it myself.

Then you'll need to type in the information for the 1099 into TurboTax yourself.  But that will allow you to change the state information as you need.

I have the same issue where I live in NY and got a GA form. As suggested I deleted all the investment and then manually added, but it still is showing GA forms/taxes.

The 1099-INT entry form does not ask for the address of the bank that paid you interest, just the bank name and EIN.

If you're using TurboTax Online, delete your 1099-INT entry, then clear your Cache and Cookies, then re-enter your interest amount.

If you lived in New York all year, make sure you didn't indicate in the Personal Info section that you earned income in Georgia.  That will make TurboTax want to add GA forms.
