TurboTax Indiana Adjustments screen what to enter?

My wife inherited a very small plot of ground in Indiana that she continued as her parents did to cash rent it. We live in another state.  While we entered it in TurboTax Premier as income, it appears we didn't check the box "Did Either of You Make Money in Any Other States?"

 

Now we are attempting to file an Indiana return. However, we are stumped at the screen "Indiana Adjustments." 

 

Are you to enter the Federal numbers that are alongside the Indiana column?

You might want to contact Support to confirm, but if the figure propagated from your federal return to the Indiana return, you should not have to make an adjustment.

 

What is the TurboTax phone number? (intuit.com)

Thank you for the quick response. 

 

What do  you mean, "you should not have to make an adjustment." Leave blank? 

 

And by Support, you mean a phone call? I looked under Support above and nothing is jumping out to me as far a contacting them directly.

That depends. Did you earn income in Indiana (i.e., that was sourced to Indiana - such as rental income)?

We learned that Indiana uses two columns, one represents Federal number and the other Indiana's. Taken as a whole, a person enters what is unique to Indiana. Not always entering the information on the Federal side.

 

Looking at the entire form, rather than following the guided tour, that becomes more clear.

The rent is Indiana source income so it would belong on the Indiana return (which would be required to be filed if the income exceeds the threshold for filing.
