There are a few reasons this may be happening.   If your overall standard deduction amount exceeds your itemized deductions, then the tax amounts will not be used.  Make sure to review the input as you proceed through the interview screens for deductions and credits to confirm that you are taking the standard deduction.   How do I change from the standard deduction to itemized (or vice-versa)?   How does the standard deduction differ from itemizing deductions?   Next, under the new tax rules, you should be able to deduct up to $40,000 in state and local taxes but there are potential limits on this amount that might be affecting your return.  If your modified adjusted gross income is over $500,000 (or $250,000 if married filing separately), your SALT deduction could be limited.  Please see Unlocking the New SALT Cap for more details to determine if this applies to you.

I would advise delete Form 5695 and step through the interview again.  Don't say 'Yes' to windows/doors if you don't have expenses to enter for them.  If you're being asked for the address in the 'Review' it may not be saving properly.     In Part II, check the box to use 'address from Federal Info Worksheet'.  If you address contains special characters, change them to text (such as 'Unit' for '#').   @ah1838     

rjs is correct.  You cannot resolve this situation in TurboTax.  Did your employer actually withhold the tax that is reported on your wife's W-2?  If so, you will have to get the employer to correct that.  If there wasn't any local tax withheld from your wife's pay you could try not reporting the local tax information when you input your W-2 and see what happens, but I don't recommend that. I do recommend you get the employer to correct the W-2 and reimburse any tax withheld, if any.

Thanks, yes I’m in California, I need to change from Itemized to standard again, I ended up switching to itemized and it then increased my overall taxes and now I owe haha. But I need to put it back to standard, when I tried amending it. It won’t allow me to switch to standard anymore, but I did not send the amend, I canceled it, I’ll just stick with the return I am getting initially. 

If you cannot proceed in TurboTax because your spouse and children are not a US citizen and they don't have a SSN, you will have to file by mail. You will not be able to e-file.     You can apply for an ITIN using Form W-7 for your spouse and children.    Try  entering "NRA" (Non-Resident Alien) or "Applied For" in the SSN field, then mail the return with the Form W-7.    Click here for Form W-7.   Click here for Instructions for Form W-7.   Click here for Claiming a Non-Citizen Spouse and Children on Your Taxes If you have additional information or questions regarding this, please return to Community and we would be glad to help.
