Thanks @GeorgeM777 for your help again! On a side note, I wonder if you or anyone here (including TurboTax employees) know where we can file bugs such as this to TurboTax. I found this to be very problematic for TurboTax Premier to populate the purchase summary of ISO reported in federal tax directly in the AMT section of CA state tax where the question was specific about other ISO and CQSO. This bug increases one's tax liability to a great extent and has serious tax implications for not only current but also future years. If the individual didn't go over this section like what I did, they wouldn't know the data was wrongly entered and ended up paying taxes that weren't theirs.
