I can't find where to designate my bank interest as from a MA bank so I can get my state exemption.  No obvious place to designate from my federal return

This is not one of the state adjustments.  The question is asked in federal return after you enter the bank interest.  Look for a screen that says 'Do any of these uncommon situations apply'?

Some adjustments are done on the state return, not federal.
