TurboTax is saying I owe thousands of dollars in state income tax for Kentucky but I called Kentucky state today and I only owed a few hundred and I paid it- So how do I get that corrected

I think what you mean is you filed your Kentucky tax return and then called the Department of Revenue and they told you you owe less tax, based on the return that you filed, than what shows on your tax return. If so, they should mail a letter explaining why. It is often because you paid in more tax than what you listed on your tax return. You will have to wait to see what the discrepancy is before you can trouble shoot your state return in TurboTax. Also, if you agree with the changes, you do not have to correct your return that you filed.
