I have filled in all my itemized deductions on my Federal forms in TurboTax desktop even though a file my Federal taxes with the standard deduction. When I go to work on my Montana State taxes, I specify that I want itemized deductions. I go through all the forms and come up with itemized deductions that are much higher than the standard deduction. Turbo tax is ignoring my itemized deductions and is giving me the standard deduction on Form 2. The itemized deductions listed on page 7 are correct, but they don't post to line 15 on Form 2. I am using the status of married but filing separately on the same form and I have allocated all income and deductions properly.
