LIne 5 - Modified adj grose income less exemptions should equal the "Trad Tax Base SD Only" column. You have to enter that manually. Proseries will not do it for you. That screen can be a bear to fill out. But, I do not have any errors for the SD returns I have done thus far.

Along this same line for the Earned Income Base section, how can the "wages amount" column and the "portion for this period" be different? For earned income only school districts the amount due should ONLY be from wages, but the system is forcing the "portion for this period" column to be the same as the Ohio AGI which should not be the case for earned income only and is resulting in a refund that the taxpayer should not be getting. Pro-Series had this error last year and it eventually got fixed - why is this happening again and does anyone know a workaround to be able to e-file still? Thank you!

The 'Portion for this period' will always be the Ohio AGI from line 3 whereas the wages amount will be wages only. The calc for Earned Income on line33 will be the lesser of, hence, wages, and taxed on wages only. I filed many SD returns with no issues.
