    Depends on what state you are using...and you haven't said what state you are a resident of.

     

    For NC, it requires the Desktop software, and entering the US Agency $$ value in Forms Mode on one of the NC worksheets.

    For Virginia, do you know how to input?  I have FHLB bonds and can't figure out how to input because it should not be taxed at state level.

    OK   @DJS ..............I think you work with the VA forms.

     

    DO you know if the VA Q&A section has an area to "adjust" (reduce) the VA taxable income for $$ received from US Agencies?

     

    Many states allow taxpayers to exclude dividends/inters from US Agencies (TVA, FHLB etc) that show up as income in box 1 (not box 3) of the 1099-INT form.   In order to remove it, some state's software has an area to "Adjust" the state income by entering that US Agency bond interest...... Does the VA software have a usable area in their Q&A?
