How to correct an income item that has been automatically used twice?

One income item on state tax return was brought forward from federal return and used on two different lines on state return, thereby doubling my income and doubling the tax due. Thanks.

How to correct an income item that has been automatically used twice?

TurboTax transfers data from your federal return to your state return. Before you begin troubleshooting your state return, go back through your federal return and make sure everything is correct.

 

After you review your federal return, select the State Taxes tab and review the state section. Pay close attention to the information, especially if you have made changes to your federal return. There might be new sections that need to be completed.
