The gain should be the same on both Federal and State. Has anyone experienced this?

It is a turbo tax issue that I found by doing some research online. Other people complained about house sale gains issues and the fix is to delete that section and then the enter it. It’s ridiculous that Turbo tax issue not fixing their error and that I had to research their error. But it’s now fixed for me. I would have overpaid by $2,200 on my state return if I hadn’t noticed the error.&nbsp;@</P> Sun, 08 Feb 2026 22:21:34 GMT https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/tax-credits-deductions/discussion/re-why-is-the-cost-basis-of-my-house-sale-different-on-the-state-form-from-what-i-entered-on-the/01/3766439#M359542 amyseropian 2026-02-08T22:21:34Z
