Your New Jersey filing status must match your federal filing status unless you meet an exception or have a special circumstance. Are you MFS for Federal too?
SALT limits your state and local income tax deduction to $10k for MFJt, which is limited to $5k each for MFS. This is the same in NJ.
during the interview for your return did you say you only own half so that TT then halved the amount you input? It is strange if you did your federal return both the same way and had 2 different NJ results so I am guessing it was during the Federal interview an input error.
**I don't work for TT. Just trying to help. All the best.
