Turbotax keeps subtracting mortgage interest for my primary home from CA return. Had a 1098 for primary home (which had 1 room rented out), and another for a 2nd home.

1098 mortgage interest for my primary home was entered through Schedule E, and Turbotax calculated my personal deduction portion to put onto Schedule A. Turbotax is rejecting this calculated portion from the CA filing, thus pushing it as a negative amount under "adjustment for interest and points reported on 1098". Effort to override this with a $0 is met with errors.

This seems to be a product error, as the entire mortgage interest deduction as reported on Schedule A should be deducted from my CA filing (there's no indication/rules that state otherwise). Please help.

Manually make the percent calculation for the rental percentage and input that as 100 to the rental.  Input the personal portion on the Schedule A.
