Proseries NYS

[Tax pro 500]

I'm trying to file 2020 NYS return with a negative AGI and elect to use itemized even if it's less then standard deduction, so i can carry forward unused charities to future years, however, Pro series only have  the option to do that on the federal return. Can anyone help figure out how to do it on the NYS return?

Are you sure that's how it works? Using the standard deduction to allow charity to carryover to next year?

Yes. and i think that Pro series is doing it wrong because they carry it over even when i use standard, but the IRS don't get any schedule A so they wouldn't honor the carryover in case of an audit, they will make me go back and amend all years
