The state income tax withheld is reported on your W-2 box 17. You will enter that amount when you report your W-2 on your Federal return. You should not make any additional entries on the state return. TurboTax will automatically carry over the information to your state return.

Revisit the W-2 screen to make sure you have entered the correct amount:

 

  1. Log in and open your return
  2. Click the Federal tab (left side of screen)
  3. Click the Wages & Income tab
  4. Click Edit/Add beside the W-2 that you want to change

Any amount that was entered directly on the state return must be deleted.
