State tax filing

Thank you for  your response but my conclusion after walking through the query again with yours as reference is I still believe the software is making an error.

My situation is that all interest is taxable at fed level, nothing non-taxable at fed level, only a portion is non-taxable for CT.

The CT query is like yours, where it asks "..is any non-taxable in CT".  When i select Yes, the next screen asks you to enter the amount that is taxable (presumable this has to be what is taxable in CT).  I've experimented here and whatever value i put in that response, TT subtracts it from the gross on ct 1040 line 4.

It should be subtracting the amount that is non-taxable in CT so I think the query wording is incorrect where it asks you to enter the taxable amount. in my screenshots, 1645 is total interest at fed level (245 is non-taxable treasury amount). Entering 1400 in the query (the taxable amount for CT) results in TT subtracting this amount from the CT gross.  I'm curious in your example, how did TT treat the $200 on the state form?query step 1query step 1query step2query step2step2 responsestep2 response1040 treatment of value entered in step 21040 treatment of value entered in step 2
