Reject code AL40NR-RS-200 occurs when Schedule RS, Part 2, Column F (StateCode) is set to "AL" (Alabama) but either Column G (StateID) or Column H (AlabamaWithheld) is missing. This error prevents the tax return from being processed.
Solution:
Review Schedule RS, Part 2:
Open the return and navigate to Schedule RS, specifically Part 2.
Check Column F (StateCode):
If the StateCode in Column F is “AL” (Alabama):
Ensure Column G (StateID) has a valid Alabama State ID.
Ensure Column H (AlabamaWithheld) has the correct amount of Alabama state tax withheld.
If the StateCode in Column F is “OS” (Out-of-State):
Column G (StateID) and Column H (AlabamaWithheld) must both be blank.
Correct Missing or Incorrect Entries:
Update the tax software with the entries for Column G and H, or remove AL.
Double-Check for Errors:
Review all entries on Schedule RS to ensure compliance with the above rules.
Run Diagnostics and Resubmit
