MA Alimony is still deductible but not tranferring from Federal
First. I am aware the tax law change regarding alimony on federal taxes. I don't need that explained (again and again).
Because the date of my agreement falls after the date of the change alimony is no longer deductible for federal taxes.
HOWEVER it is still considered deductible in Massachusetts and TurboTax is not transferring the amount from Fed to State. The Federal form treats it as zero because the date makes it ineligible. I would expect TurboTax to transfer the actual amount (displayed as zero on Federal) to MA schedule Y on MA state.
I can override the amount in forms (MA Schedule Y) mode (and have it work correctly), but I cannot e-file when there is an override.
I believe this is a bug
