Wisconsin state income tax

You are correct, I went through a personal Wisconsin tax return using the numbers you gave us.  Assuming that your federal adjusted gross income is $16,000 and that your income is from wages, the amount of tax should not be that high. 

The way TurboTax works is that it transfers data from your federal return to your state return. If the information in your federal return is incomplete or incorrect, your state return won't be complete or correct either.

Before you begin troubleshooting your state return, go back through your federal return (starting at the Personal Info tab) and make sure everything's correct.  Maybe there is a different type of income that is making your tax higher.  

Once you're done, select the State Taxes tab and review the state section. Pay close attention to the info, especially if you made changes to your federal return. There might be new sections that need to be completed.  

Sometimes changes made to your federal return won't transfer if you override info in your state return. If this happens, delete your state return and start over.

If your problem continues, contact us again, but since we can't access your information, you will need to give us more details on your state return.
