 Problem 1. Some of federally exempt interest is taxable to Alabama. How do I change just the Alabama entry?

Problem 2. Some of federally taxable dividends are not taxable to Alabama. Same question, how do I access Alabama data to make the change?

So, you indicate in the federal section of TurboTax that the interest is not taxable on the state return.

 

I'm not sure how to answer the question regarding the dividends, what federally taxable dividends would not be taxable in Alabama please?
