Back door Roth Conversion added back as income on MA state

Hi,

Back door conversion done in 2021, 1099 R Code2 (taxable amount not determine).

I have 8606 form fill out correct on Federal none taxable.

But on MA state return added back as IRA/SEP taxable distribution.

Anyone knows how to get around on MA state return?

"But on MA state return added back as IRA/SEP taxable distribution."

It's all about residency tax.

"Included in your Massachusetts gross income for the year paid:

Contributions you made to a traditional IRA plan. For federal purposes, you can claim either all or part of the contribution as a deduction on U.S. Form 1040 if certain criteria are met. However, Massachusetts does not allow a deduction for these contributions.
Distributions from an IRA account made to you. For Massachusetts purposes however, distributions made are excluded from gross income if these distributions equal your Massachusetts previously taxed contributions. If you're a Massachusetts resident but also a beneficiary of a non-Massachusetts IRA, the entire IRA distribution is taxable since no Massachusetts tax was ever paid on the contributed income."

Are you able to mark that this was MA taxed, to start with?
