Deductions & credits

You just verified what I finally discovered as well.  I have always put in my federal deductions even though they the standard deduction is higher because on my Oregon form I could use those deductions. 

 

This year there was no way to tell Oregon to itemize instead of using the standard deduction.  Clicking on the "Forms" button on the tool bar and Looking at the Oregon forms I saw the "Std/itemized Wks"  for deciding to use itemized vs standard and it said to itemize! (huge difference favoring itemizing).

 

I kept trying to figure out how to make it itemize and finally under Oregon Forms, I found a form called "Info Worksheet" and in it under "Part V Standard deductions/Itemized deductions" changed the checkbox to itemize even if it is less (which it clearly is not less) and that changed everything and got me about $2,000 more refund because it now used the itemized deductions. 

 

This is clearly a bug in the Oregon State form that needs to be fixed ASAP where the program is ignoring the worksheet saying to use the itemize deduction over the standard deduction.  OREGON RESIDENCE BE AWARE!
