Is there a way to force the standard deduction for a federal 1040 to take the $300 adjustment to income for charitable contributions without also forcing the state return to take the standard deduction? I am preparing a federal and Kentucky return for an individual and it is better to itemize for Kentucky, but when I check the box under Cash Contributions on screen 25 or enter the amount in the next box, it forces the standard deduction for both federal and Kentucky when I only want to take the standard deduction for the federal return. The only way around it I have found so far is entering it as an additional adjustment in screen 24 without forcing the standard deduction, but that lists the adjustment on Schedule 1 instead of on Line 10b.
