Once we fill in the information on the 1098-T and enter it in the federal program I do not know why the program will not carry that information any further than the federal program and require the preparer to re-enter said information in a different format on the state return. Yes - we are responsible for carrying the information accurately but that is what a computer program should do whenever possible.
Thanks for the idea to autofill 1098-T from the federal module to the state. We are changing the status to "Open for voting" since it has been around for over 30 days and no longer considered "New".
