I believe there is an error in the North Carolina Software program. Like I suppose all states, if you donate to charity an amount over your AGI, the excess must be carried over to the next five years (actually, NC limits it to 60% of AGI, I think; but it's immaterial to my finding). Like the huge majority of filers, I came nowhere near giving to charity an amount that large. But, on the D-400 NC Standard/Itemized Deductions Worksheet, on Line 3 under Charitable Contributions, there is a number; it happens to be the exact amount I DID give to various charities, in 2020; but it's certainly not near my AGI. So I don't think it should be there at all. I think I can zero it out, thereby increasing my tax; but better than sending in an erroneous return.
