(assuming you have the latest NC updates if using desktop software)
But your total NC itemized deductions do have to be greater than the NC Std Deduction too. Not all Fed deductions can be used (like state taxes income paid are not an NC deduction at all).
________________________________
It works OK on my test Fed & NC tax return. I have a Fed Std Ded of 13,600 (single over 65) , and NC itemized deductions of 9528 (including 5,000 QCD) are being used, vs. the NC Std Ded of 8750
Manually Check what each $$ amount "should" be on lines 15-23 of the NC D400 Sch S to see if line 23 is above your NC Std Ded.
On my Sch S...the software automatically added my QCD in with my Fed charity $$ for the line 20 total
