Is here a code for "State ID for Box 8" to indicate "more than one state?" TurboTax catches this as an error and says, "If more than one state, see Help" (but no URL)

We entered the state we live in, as well as Puerto Rico, but everything else was various. There are complicated computations provided by the Brokerage additional information sheet, listing every single state and the percentage of dividends that would be tax-exempt in those states. company is Pershing, LLC
