Will TurboTax consider info from Schedule A for my State taxes even if I used the standard deduction on my federal taxes?

In the past, I have benefitted from using the itemized deduction when filing state taxes, even though it doesn't benefit me with my federal filing, so I use the standard deduction. Will TurboTax consider this possibility on my state taxes?

Yes. TurboTax will automatically itemize on the state program if the itemizations are greater than the state standard deduction even though you took the standard deduction for federal. Enter your itemized deductions on your federal return to accomplish this.
