This no longer applies. Effective January 1, 2024, the deduction previously allowed for a deduction of up to $100 ($200 for joint filers) of interest from Massachusetts banks is repealed.
I did this twice and it still did not give me the exemption. I think there's a bug in the MAC desktop version of TurboTax.
