I have a client in NJ who is disabled, but not blind. How do I get the exemption on NJ only?

Line 8 says "Blind/Disabled," meaning one or the other. Check the box.

This does not work properly. When checking the "blind" box, it also marks it as blind on the federal 1040, and increases the standard deduction. I only want disabled exemption on NJ.

You use Lacerte, I use Pro Series. You lost me.

For future use, here are a few ways to go fishing for that input
- Go to the forms and find the box or line and RIGHT CLICK, then click Jump to Input
- In the General input screen use Ctrl + F and a word or very short phrase with no verbs to search. Like "disable" or "disabled"
- Use Google to search, as the search box in this is virtually useless. Again, short phrase "Lacerte NJ disable exemption" (Try it) I think it would probably lead back here, but seems to only open on the search box here. Again, the support site somewhat sucks.
