Question

How do I enter 2017 NC taxes paid in 2018 which offset a 2017 NY overpayment refunded in 2018?

For 2017, I itemized deductions but will use standard deduction for 2018.

Income taxes paid will add a schedule A deduction.   But, the refund is counted as income.  NY gives me a full credit for the taxes paid to another state.   The Fed should be doing the same.   I should have a full credit against the NY refund for the taxes paid to NC since they both apply to the same tax year.
