I noticed Turbo Tax took the Itemized deduction for me. I didn't think you could deduct state and local taxes that were already included on the w2?

Is there an issue with Turbo tax calculating incorrectly?

state and local taxes reported as withheld on a w-2,1099, or other tax form are a Schedule A deduction under the taxes  section.  There is no problem with what Turbotax did.
