In IA 2023 I keep getting message "Dividend Income Worksheet: Payer has too many characters." It highlights the Suffix field in my name, but the field is blank. I tried to Delete characters, but it keeps giving me the same error. How can I fix this?

Payer is the name that issued the 2099-DIV. Keep deleting characters from that name.
Thank you very much! I had to go back to the Federal 1099-DIV and edit the Payer name. This was not evident in the error message presented. The error should be clearer and specify where to make the change. 👍
As it turns out, although it says dividend name is too long and points to the suffix field, a long name on any income form may trigger the issue. I found it on a K1. This does seem to be mostly a Iowa issue. Turbotax support never did solve it but after another few hours I found it
