How do I complete 1099 DIV Box 13? Blank is not an option even tho' it says "leave blank if empty on your form". Texas doesn't have state taxes. Help?

More than one state is not an option in the dropdown

Try entering $0.01 and see if it will accept that.

1099-DIV form correct ?...be sure..

IF 14 and 15 are empty...leave box 13 empty too... IF 15 has a zero in it...delete it and leave the whole line for 13,14,15 blank in every field.

The only time you need 13,14,15 entered is if there is some real $$ amount in 15. (some form issuers get over-zealous with entering 0.00 everywhere, when an entry is not needed at all. )
