Thank you Bill!   I followed the steps you suggested on March 15, 2024 11:11 AM. ("enter a miscellaneous medical expenses in your Schedule A, where the description is "HSA adjustment", and the amount is equal to the total of the 1099-SA amounts for qualified medical expenses.")   This seemed to correct my Federal tax due.  At the same time, it increased my CA refund.  I believe that's proper since California doesn't tax the HSA distribution.  I seem to remember that CA also doesn't give a reduction in income for HSA contributions.   For context - I contributed to the HSA for 10+ years, never taking a distribution.  In early 2024, I closed the account, making sure that I documented enough previous year medical expenses to exceed the account balance.  In case I get audited, I have the documentation.   The 2024 medical expenses I entered were all out of pocket and not reimbursed by the distribution.   Do I still need to perform the CA adjustment to income and add the HSA amount as an addition?  Doing so will reduce my CA refund.   (I thought about editing the 1099-SA and changing the amount to zero, but I figured the IRS wouldn't like that and trigger an audit.  I also attempted to override line 13b to zero on the Schedule A worksheet, but TurboTax called it an error).  This does appear to be a gap in functionality.

You are tracking them. Each state has different rules for carryover. OR allows you to carryover the same as the federal but based on the state income and loss. See OAR 150-314-0110 – Allocation of Oregon Modifications which states:   Example: John is a nonresident of Oregon and has rental property in both Oregon and California. His loss from all rentals is $50,000 and from his Oregon rental $10,000. Federal law allows a deduction of up to $25,000 for rentals. John would show $25,000 loss in the federal column of Form 40N and $10,000 loss in the Oregon column of Form 40N. John claims the $10,000 loss for Oregon because the loss for a nonresident from Oregon sources is treated in the same manner as a passive loss for a full-year resident.  In the case of a nonresident, losses resulting from passive activities derived from or connected with sources outside Oregon are not deductible for Oregon purposes, regardless of a later change in the taxpayer’s residency.   @plawlor78

Looks like MT uses the Federal deduction amount to calculate the MT deduction.  So if you itemized there,  that COULD be the amount you will get on line 2 of MT Form 2 (adjusted federal itemized deduction).  Otherwise you get whatever the standard amount is for your filing status.  It is all calculated for you.
