Deductions & credits

Hello KrisD15,

Thanks for the follow up. I did not enter the ACA premiums in the Federal medical expense interview pages but I did enter all data from 1095-A when prompted. TurboTax correctly calculated the credit and added the proper premium amount to the total medical expense which correctly shows $8443 (sum of $4853 actual expenses + ACA premiums not covered by subsidy). That part all looks correct. My confusion is the amount $3732 that comes over to the NJ return. How is TT coming up with that number? I would guess that it should at least be $4853 and then I can adjust it to add back the ACA premiums I actually paid (after TT has calculated the proper credit I'm eligible for based on my actual calculated AGI).
