MA resident Form 1 is duplicating income from a W-2 that shows CT wages and identical MA wages but the actual wages were earned only in CT (non-resident). There should be a box that corrects this situation similar to the MA Non-Resident form "Massachusetts Duplicate Wages Exclusion Smart Worksheet" Column D "Exclude Duplicate State Wages" check box which would be checked for MA.
Intuit just isn’t consistent with its state software….
NJ has a worksheet like you describe to exclude duplicate wages that flow from other line entries on the W2…. But they bury it a couple layers under the wages on the NJ 1040… took me a few years to accidentally trip on it…. ny has an allocation worksheet and PA has something I’d rather not try to describe….
