How do I adjust my income on my state return that is pulling incorrectly from my federal return?

Most states start with federal income, so TurboTax will pull your federal income into your state return.

 

You can adjust in the state section.

 

You don’t say why you think your state income is being pulled incorrectly from your federal return.

 

If you are a part-year or non-resident, the state section will have a place where you can allocate you income to report only the amount you earned while living and/or working in the state.

How do I adjust my income on my state return that is pulling incorrectly from my federal return?

For any follow up questions, you need to identify your state.  If this is a situation where you're filing other state(s), you need to identify the other state too, and which one you are a resident of.

 

In general, the state portion of the TurboTax program has entry screens for all allowable adjustments to what transfers from the federal.
