How would I clear New York red message 2044?
NY EF Message 2044 states:
NY withholding reported on a 1099-G - Unemployment Compensation
NY withholding from federal form 1099-G (not issued by the New York State Department of Labor) is being reported on form IT-201 line 72 or IT-203 line 62. The return must be paper filed. Be sure to attach the federal forms 1099-G to the NY return.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Retain this special exception to the e-file mandate in your records. You will need to furnish this to the State should they access any penalties.
