My wife and I file separately. We each take the standard deduction for federal. For California, it is much better for my wife to itemize. Therefore I must do the same, even though my own deductions are less than the California standard deduction.
Is there a way to get Turbotax to do this? Last year I processed my federal and California returns in Turbotax with the standard deduction, and then I had to do manual overrides to force Turbotax to use my itemized deductions for California instead of the standard deduction.
Is there a way to do this without having to resort to manual overrides?
