I late filed 2016, 2017, 2018 and 2019 taxes. All got a refund and all chose standard deduction.
Tt added my 2016 - 2018 state tax refund as taxable income.
How do I fix this?
Thank you.

Thank you for the feedback. Since you took the Standard Deduction in those years you can just delete the entries in TurboTax.
If you used the standard deduction in those years, then you do not have to report the state refund. If you entered the state refund please make sure you answer all follow-up questions carefully to ensure TurboTax calculates the taxable amount correctly.
Please see Do I need to report the state or local refund I got last year? Is it taxable? for additional information.
Thank you for your reply. I am not sure which questions you think I answered wrong. I'm probably the only person in this situation, so this bug can probably be ignored. I will be paper-filing directly, which to me is more user-friendly than tt free. Feel free to delete this thread if it's not helping anybody. Thank you again for your reply though.
