Nebraska return takes total itemized deductions used to get to taxable income and takes from that state income taxes reported. However, total state taxes allowed in federal itemized deductions is $10,000. For 2022 Nebraska turbo tax took total itemized deductions of about $30,000 on line 7 and subtracted state income taxes of about $14,000 on line 8 even though only $10,000 of state taxes was used to get to the $30,000 of federal itemized deductions. Shouldn't the state income taxes subtracted be limited to the total state taxes included within the total itemized deductions?
