Technically, it can be reported either in Box 14 or 19.  Question is whether PS knows how the manage the following if you leave that in Box 19:

  1. VPDI is not deductible and should not flow to Sch A; and
  2. Whether the amount will flow to CA 540 correctly If the taxpayer is eligible to claim a credit for excess VPDI.

FWIW I always put it in Box 14, it identifies it automatically as VPDI and doesn't send to Sch A

Thank you for all your comments. Now I know it is okay to move it to box 14 even if it is in box 19.
