Turbo tax not subtracting out US Treasury Interest on New York State forms

New York State, IT-201 LIne 2, Taxable Income, not subtracting out US treasury income from Federal.  Where do I enter the tax except interest so it doesn't tax me?  Thanks

The interest income on U.S. government bonds is subtracted on Line 28 of your IT-201. Although it may look like it is being included in your taxable income, it is also being deducted on the later part of the form.

When you entered your 1099- INT, you told the program you had US interest in box 3. You may have also selected to adjust the amounts for other boxes while in the federal section.
