    Hi Mark122,

    Make sure when you enter the 1099-DIV you answer Yes, to the question, "Is this a mutual fund that has U.S. Government interest income?" Press Save. On the next page, "State Tax-Exempt Dividends" enter the amount that is exempt in NJ and Save. You don't enter that on the NJ State pages.
