Amy, please take a look at my New York Return. I'm getting the same letter in the mail from New York State as everyone else about a computation error in IT-196. Here's my token number: 1225817.

I see an error on line 40 worksheet 2 which is affecting line 41 worksheet 2 - our sub adj lmt wk in your return which causes a $32 difference on line 41. Does this go along with your letter?

No, the discrepancy is $301.26 in line 34 (Itemized deduction) of form IT-201.The overall difference amounts to $18.52 in tax.

The error that you found, whose error is it? New York State or Turbotax?

(I sent you a copy of the letter New York State mailed me in a reply to the email I received from this site.)

I also have similar computation discrepancy between TurboTax and NY. Is there a resolution on this? Have we figured out whose calculations are wrong? Thanks

I also took a closer look at your token file to see if there is something that needs to be addressed by TurboTax. I did not find the discrepancy in the calculation that Amy reported. Everything appears correct to me with regard to the separate calculation used to determine the value of line 40 on Form IT-196.

Unfortunately, we don't have a way to see the copy of the letter that you sent via email. If you could share more information about what it said with regard to the $301.26 discrepancy on line 34 of Form IT-201, I would like to take another look to see what may have caused it and make sure that there is not something that needs attention in the TurboTax program. Does the letter state that one of your deductions was claimed in excess or in error which caused the reduction in the itemized deductions? Any additional information from your letter could be helpful.
