My 2025 Arizona tax submission was rejected. The problem, according to the email from Turbotax is:
"641-140 Arizona Schedule A, Line 7A does not equal line 5A subtracted from line 6A:; FRM-Error has occurred on the Arizona Adjustment to State Income Taxes Schedule."
I reviewed Turbotax's Arizona Schedule A worksheet on page 2, and noticed that the amount on Turbotax's Line 4A Limit from federal Schedule A "Enter $40,000 ($20,000 if married filing separate)" is different from the amount on the same worksheet that I downloaded from the Arizona Department of Taxation website. "Enter $10,000 ($5,000 if married filing separate)"
As a result, on Line 4A of this worksheet Turbotax is erroneously filling in $40,000 instead of $10,000, causing the calculation (and my tax submission) to be rejected.
Please review this and fix it so that I can re-file my Arizona state taxes.

Can you give us the URL for the Arizona Schedule A worksheet that you downloaded? The Worksheet that I downloaded from Arizona (if we are looking at the same one) had "$40,000", not "Enter $10,000".
Also, please tell us the amounts you have on lines 5A, 6A, and 7A on your Arizona Schedule A - the rejection message says that the subtraction is wrong.
Hi BillM, and thanks for your reply.
First of all, I was indeed wrong about the numbers on the form I downloaded from Arizona website. The 2025 Schedule A worksheets from Arizona and Turbotax both agree, $40,000; $20,000 for married filing separate. (I had a lot of files open that day trying to find the problem and I must have been looking at the 2024 AZ Schedule A. I apologize for that mistake on my part.)
That leaves us with the rejection due to subtraction error, which I can't explain by looking at my Schedule A worksheet. I'm uncomfortable posting my exact figures to a public forum, but here's the gist:
4A is $40,000
5A is an amount less than $40,000 but larger than $10,000
6A is $10,000
7A (5A subtracted from 6A) would then be a negative number. The number filled in on 7A is $0, which was entered on AZ Schedule A, line 7 as zero as well.
That calculation looks right to me, so I don't know what I can change to fix the 'subtraction error'.
I hope this helps; if you need more specific information from my tax forms I would prefer to discuss it privately. Please advise as to what I should do next.
Thanks!
