Thanks, but there appears to be no wrong entry, just a wrong total.  I tried deleting the 1099-INT that came close to the overage, then putting it back in by hand, but the discrepancy is still the same.

Correct.   You will get the additional withholding from the previous state refunded.   You are going to file 2 part-year returns; since you were a resident of two different states during the tax year, follow these steps.    Do I have to file tax returns in more than one state?   How do I allocate (split) income for a part-year state return?

I would very much like to see this in writing.  Could you please provide some written evidence for this position?   Publication 101 in Illinois is quite definitive and clear and states: "What if I have income from obligations of the United States Government? If you have income from stocks and obligations of the United States Government that is included in your Illinois base income, you may subtract the total amount of income and interest on the obligations from your Illinois base income."    Notice the statement says "income and interest."   Publication 101 does not explicit state anything about "accrued market discount income" of course; otherwise there would be no question.   By the way, I finally did find a chain that does a reasonably good job of exploring the various aspects of this question.    https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/state-taxes/discussion/accrued-market-discount-from-treasury-bills-and-notes/00/2264391

TurboTax might prompt you to restart your return or check your status for several reasons: TurboTax releases updates to fix bugs, improve performance, and ensure compliance with the latest tax laws. If an update is available, the system might require a restart to apply these changes. Sometimes, technical issues such as corrupted files or incomplete installations can cause the software to behave unexpectedly, including restarting or freezing.

@DavidD66  Ok… So how should I proceed if TurboTax doesn’t allow me to enter the form without a number above 0 in column B? Does this mean I’m not eligible to enter this form at all? If so that’s fine, I just don’t want to miss something important. Thank you for the clarification about the 0 being correct!

La deducción estándar es una cantidad que se asigna basado en tu estado civil y también es diferente en los impuestos federales y en los estatales.    Las deducciones detalladas son basadas en gastos que se tuvieron durante el año, como intereses, impuestos de tu casa, donaciones, entre otros.  Estos tienen que ser más que la deducción estándar para que ayuden.     TurboTax te ayudará a elegir la deducción que sea más ventajosa para tu situación.   ¿Cuál es mi deducción estándar para 2024? ¿En qué se diferencia la deducción estándar de las deducciones detalladas?

This problem has been ongoing for several years and TurboTax still hasn't fixed it.  I just e-filed (4/1/25) my Hawaii 2024 taxes with Turbo Tax and it still is asking me to print out the payment voucher and send a check even though I opted to pay with direct debit.  There is no reason why this shouldn't have been fixed by now, except that Intuit doesn't care............  I'll wait to see if Hawaii debits my account, but I'm betting they will.
