State tax filing

Thanks to @Caballo @ThomasM125 and @W799pscmah for your posts.

Like @Caballo I am not filing electronically.  There are clergy specific federal adjustments (Pub 517) that get attached to state returns and which are not included by TurboTax in efile for Federal or state.

My questions:

  1. Is the New Jersey “Statement for Wages, Salaries, and Tips” a worksheet completely authored by TurboTax or is it based on something in New Jersey tax instructions/forms/code?  If the latter, a reference to the New Jersey associated item(s) would be helpful if anyone knows the associated item.
  2. Since @ThomasM125  points at that the New Jersey “Statement for Wages, Salaries, and Tips” does not transmit with e-filing, is there a reason to include it in a mailed print return? I do have one item of "other income" not on my W-2, but as long as my NJ-1040 line 15 "Wages, salaries, tips, and other employee compensation" includes that small amount and line 15 exceeds the W-2 reported amount, it seems that the worksheet would be unnecessary (especially since omitted in e-file).

Thank you! RevEd1
