How do I correct my projected state return amount? The website is adding my state tax to my annual salary and projecting that as my total return amount for state.

Hi, are you certain the state tax added to your income is not for 2021 state refund? If you itemize deductions and use local and state tax and also receive a refund from the state, the refund may be taxable on your next year's tax return.

In TurboTax everything flows from Federal entries to your state return.

It sounds like a double entry or a mistake in the import of Form W-2.

Double check the W-2 entries against your actual Form W-2 and make sure that your annual salary has not been entered as state tax withheld.

After you make any corrections go over the state again and make sure that W-2 entries have not been entered once again in the state interview questions.
