I'm filling out my state of North Carolina taxes and have some Series I savings bond interest.  I know this interest is not taxable at the state level.  But where do I include this exempt interest on my North Carolina state tax return.  I do not see a line for it.

    If you enter the savings bond interest, in the federal section, in box 3 of a form 1099-INT, the interest will automatically be excluded from the state return (in every state).

     

    For NC, the deduction is shown on line 8 of Schedule S and is  included on line 9 of form D 400.

    TurboTax will automatically exclude the savings bond interest from your North Carolina tax return if it is entered in your Federal return in box 3 of Form 1099-INT, as stated by Hal_Al.

     

    On the North Carolina tax return, the adjustment for the savings bond interest is included on Form D-400 line 9, Deductions from Federal Adjusted Gross Income.
