Agency Bond Interest - How do I get Turbotax to reflect this as exempt on State (RI) return

How do I get Turbotax to reflect on RI Schedule M that the agency bond interest is not taxed by the state?

 

My 1099-INT box lists the interest from Agency Bonds (TVA, Federal Home Loan Bank, Federal Farm Credit Bank) in Box 1 and interest from US Treasuries in Box 3.

 

A prior post suggested entering by hand the interest from Box 1 as if it was in box 3 on the Federal return.  Will this create a problem for the Federal return?

 

RI Schedule M does not seem to have another category to exempt the Agency Bond Interest, and line 1a cannot be changed in Turbotax without an override.

 

Thank you.
