Thank you! This is how I have it entered, and it is pulling those amounts to the Alabama return line 5b (the total federal wages).

It looks like the prior preparer made a mistake by including PA wages as Alabama income. PA wages do not allow certain deductions like 401k and those those contributions are taxable, causing the PA wages to exceed Federal. I did not think it looked correct to have those higher wages taxed as Alabama income.

I am strictly working on 2020 tax returns right now but I think this would be worth amending after tax season? The prior year AL income is over 19k more than it should have been.
