14172: MD - EF Message 0613

Maryland EF Message 0613 states: 

A federal screen 99G is entered with a state tax refund. A 99G screen can only be used to report unemployment income.

If there is state tax refund, enter it on federal screen 3 and not on the 99G screen.

To avoid this EF message, the 1099-G should only be used to report unemployment income for MD purposes. If the 1099-G received has only an amount reported in Box 2 - State/Local Tax Refund/Credit, the message can be cleared by deleting the 99G screen by pressing Ctrl+D on your keyboard. Enter the State Tax Refund on line 1 of the Schedule 1 - Part 1 - Additional Income section of federal screen 3 (Income).
