W-2 Box 14 NYS efile error

My W-2 box 14 has a code of 6. The code description is Pretax benefits such as Health, Dental, and/or Vision.  

The NYS ACCEPTABLE reasons do not fit  my situation so I've entered: Other (not on above list) which enters on form as: Other (not classified).  TurboTax sees this as an error for NYS and indicates that I will not be able to efile in NY.  How do I correct this since "OTHER" is the right option for me?

You should delete the Box 14 amount from your W2 entry.  You will then be able to e-file.
