Can capital gains distributions (from schedule 1099-DIV) be offset by capital losses from investments from schedule 1099-B for New Jersey State taxes?

As I understand it, the rule is like assets must offset each other.  These both would be capital gains/losses but it doesn't appear to be pulling through from Federal to state.

It won't happen because what you suggest is not permitted. On NJ Schedule B, Capital Gain distributions are on Line 2 and  Capital Gains (net) are on Line 1.

Correction. see ans.

NJ doesn't allow a deduction for Net Capital Loss from stock transactions, so there is nothing to offset your amount on Line 2.
