56694

[#1]

One or more Federal W-2, Box 10, Dependent Care Benefits, amounts have been entered on this return. Massachusetts does not conform to the Federal increased exclusion from gross income for employer-provided dependent care assistance. Massachusetts exclusion amounts continue to be $2,500 for married filing separate returns and $5,000 for all other taxpayers. Verify the excess was correctly included as MA wages on the W-2(s), and if not, adjust accordingly. (ref. #56694)......Informational only, will not prevent Efile.

I'm getting this diagnostic even though the MA W2 (which is for a non-resident) has no dependent care expenses reported on it.  I see this won't prevent efile but was wondering if there is a way to clear it out.
