Please review your 1099-Div entries in TurboTax:

 

  1. Click on Federal from the menu on the left-hand side and then click on Wages and Income at the top
  2. Click on Edit/Add next to Dividends on 1099-DIV and click on Edit or Review next to your 1099-Div entry
  3. Scroll down to boxes 13 through 15 and compare your entries to what is shown on your Form 1099-Div
  4. Make any corrections or delete any entries that are not reported on your Form 1099-Div

 

Next, verify any state information reported on your Form 1099-Div in Boxes 13 through 15. If there is information in Boxes 13 through 15, does the Form 1099-Div list a state other than Texas in Box 13?

That is became TX does not have any income tax.   Delete the 1099-DIV and re-enter making sure that nothing is entered into boxes 13 to 15.
