How do I enter my Property Tax deduction manually on my State of New Jersey return?

The Property Tax deduction has the wrong amount so I need to manually enter the correct amount. It keeps adding my California property taxes along with New Jersey's.

You can change the amount of property tax paid in the New Jersey section.

 

Keep going in New Jersey until you reach Eligibility – Property tax Deduction or Credit. 

 

Say Yes you meet all the requirements and keep going until you reach We Need to Know About Your Property Taxes.

 

TurboTax will show you an amount in Property Taxes Paid on Principal Residence. If this is not correct, change the amount in the box.
