Form 1099-R: Duplicating State Info Next Steps for Sites

Original Post found HERE.

How to identify if your site(s) has impacted returns:

Log into your site and go to the “Reports” menu. Under “Other Data Reports“, click on “Management Reports“. Look for the “Site Production 1099R State Duplication Report“. Inside the “Site Production 1099R State Duplication Report“, choose Tax Year 2024 and then select your EFIN under the “EFIN Selection” tab. Click “Run Report“.

Note: ONLY impacted returns will display. If your site report is blank, your site DOES NOT have any impacted returns and there is no further action.

What is an “Impacted Return”:

Impacted returns are returns where a 1099-R was present, state withholdings were duplicated AND the return was electronically filed AND accepted. Note: TaxSlayer has already deleted duplicate state records for 1099-R returns with duplicated state information that HAVE NOT e-filed.

Next steps if your site(s) has Impacted Returns:

Find your state in the list below and follow the guidance provided. Note: If your state is NOT listed, we have not received guidance from your state and no action is needed at this time. The below list will be updated as state guidance is received. IL, ME & OH will NOT have any impacted returns due to existing state business rules to reject 1099-R returns with duplicate state withholdings.

  • Should a Federal Amended Return also be filed? An amended Federal return should only be considered if the Federal return used Itemized Deductions instead of the Standard Deduction since state withholdings are an Itemized Deduction.

Note: If your state indicates an amended return needs to be prepared and filed, when amending, review all 1099-R’s present in the return and delete all duplicated state details.

We received the below confirmation from Connecticut regarding CT returns still waiting on acknowledgments. There is nothing to do on your end. As CT issues acknowledgements, they will update in your site(s) automatically. Any CT returns transmitted prior to 4/15/24 at 11:59 in your local time zone are considered timely filed.

“We have some issues with some acknowledgments not being sent out.  We are looking into the issue and are hoping to have them all sent out in the next few days.”
