My State return for 2017 doesn't match my federal return.

The # listed is a positive # and it should be a negative number. Turbotax auto-populates these fields? How can this happen?

What state?

What number?

How do you know it's wrong?

Why are you just finding a problem now with your 2017 tax return? Did you get a letter from the state? If so, what exactly does the letter say is wrong? Or are you just now filing your 2017 tax return?

If you already filed the return, do you have copies of your 2017 federal and state tax returns?

Some entries, in some states, require YOU to designate positive or negative.
