First year filing married filing separately. What is correct to enter into the community property addition adjustment? Would it be the same as was is on my w2?

When you file Married Filing Separately and live in a community property state, you have to allocate 1/2 of each of your incomes, expenses, and taxes paid on each tax return. I'm not certain what you mean "Would it be the same as was is on my w2?" There's no allocation on your W-2.

Refer to the TurboTax article Married Filing Separately in community property states for instructions to enter income adjustments.
