TurboTax's review process said that I was missing info for:

"Homeowners/Tenants Property Tax Paid Wks: Line 1-Address or line 5-address must be entered."

However, I never indicated/completed the Homeowner/Rental section as I lived with my parents for most of the year due to my University sending us home (because of COVID19).

Two questions:
1. Why is TurboTax saying I need to enter this info?

2. Does paying money for University housing/dorms qualify as "renting" in NJ? NJ University.

Thanks in advance.

This website shows why the property tax question matters on that section of the New Jersey return: NJ Income Tax Property Tax Deduction/Credit for Homeowners and Tenants. There's a link on the page to see if paying for a dorm is considered rent. The answer is no, because the universities do not have to pay property tax.
