Where do I enter the local sales tax rate (1% Allegheny County) for Pennsylvania. The column is blank; I override it, and it becomes an "Error" which may foul up e-filing. When I check the sales tax tables at IRS.gov I'm being denied $131 deduction.

As you walk through your state return, you will need to select the County you live in while in TurboTax.
TurboTax will walk you through completing your State of Pennsylvania return.
The sales tax deduction only applies to your federal return, and only is beneficial if you itemized deductions. Go to federal, personal, deductions and credits, estimates & other taxes paid, select sales tax. Notes that the program asks for the total sales tax (both state and local) that applies to your locality.
Or are you referring to the local earned income tax deducted from your pay???? You would enter that on the W2 screen.
