I am Filing as "Married, Filing Separately" with no dependents and it is putting a 2 in Line 9a. Shouldn't it be 1? Its always been that in previous years. I can't change it in either Step by Step instructions or Forms mode.

It should be 1.

If you filed jointly for the federal return, you need to mock up a separate federal return in order to file separately for the state.

I am filing both Federal and State as "Married, Filing Separately.". The Turbotax software is putting in 2 for my exemptions on my state return. How can I correct it? Forms mode does not allow me to edit that field.
