Deductions & credits

Hi,

I have a similar situation. I sold a land in India in 2022 and per your instructions, added the taxable income on the proceeds into my federal income. This increased my total taxable income. I also went ahead and entered the deductions per your instructions and I got the Federal refund to reflect the deduction. However upon finishing off the state return I found to by surprise that my state tax due got shot up by a couple of thousands more due to the fact that my total taxable income has increased due to the land sale. Is this normal or is there a way to claim deduction on my state return as well?

Thanks in advance for your response.
