Where to report SGOV tax state exempt

DSP — Thu, 26 Feb 2026 19:32:25 GMT

Hello All,

In 1099-DIV form,

1a Total Ordinary Dividends = 1400

1b Qualified Dividends = 350

14 State = NJ

12 Exempt-Interest Dividends = 0

As per 1099-DIV, dividend from SGOV is $900. and in TurboTax i see

1 - NJ-Tax exempt interest income

2- Federal tax-exempt interest income

Where do i need to add this number option 1 or 2.. I know it is not full $900 but 95% of $900
