    Do you mean Schedule A?   There is no longer a federal Form 1040A.   On your federal return, if you itemize, you have the option to deduct either Sales Tax paid or State/Local Income Taxes paid.   NY state has its own rules for itemizing deductions and does not follow the federal guidelines.  When you go through the state return, you adjust for these differences.  

     

    For federal purposes, a taxpayer’s total itemized deduction for state and local taxes paid is limited to a combined amount not to exceed $10,000 ($5,000 MFS). In addition, a taxpayer can no longer deduct foreign taxes paid on real estate. For New York purposes, a taxpayer's state and local taxes are not subject to the federal limit and foreign taxes paid on real estate can be deducted.

     

    Check your email/rejection notice and please respond back with the state reject code or verbiage used.  It is unlikely that your state return was rejected because of a sales tax figure.  Go back through the NY return in TurboTax and print/view the return before you resubmit it.

    The error code is R0130 - NYC withholding on form not = withholding on statements

    This has nothing to do with sales tax, but with New York City tax withheld.

    New York's error code R0130 relates to line 73 of Form IT-201 or IT-201X, or line 63 of Form IT-203 or IT-203X.  See the NYS e-file Error Code listing for more information.

    You should double-check all of your New York City tax withholding inputs.
