What state? If you sell a T-bill on the secondary market for a profit before it matures, that profit is considered a capital gain. Most states treat these gains as taxable income, similar to gains from selling stocks.

It’s for the state of MA. I didnt sell it off before the maturation date so technically this should be exempt from state tax. I’m just not sure how to set it up on TurboTax so that my tax form correctly reflects that

After you enter the form, TurboTax will ask you what state the interest is from and there is a box to mark for MA. There will be a screen titled Do any of these uncommon situations apply?
