Entering US govt obligations from 1099DIV - Direct vs. indirect

Hello TT Community! 

 

I have a question relating to form 1099-DIV.  When entering dividend income in TT, it asks:

 

"Enter the amount of dividends reported on Form 1099-DIV for FUND that represents interest from US Government obligations"

 

One of my funds is with Janus Henderson - on their "2019 Dividends Derived from U.S. Government Obligations" they list Percentage of Dividends Derived From:  US Treasury Securities, Other Direct US Government Obligations, and Other Indirect US Government Obligations.

 

My question is:  when calculating total dividends derived from US Govt obligation interest, do I include all 3 categories listed?  I live in California.  Thanks!
