I honestly don’t know how anyone stays up to date with the tax codes. As much as I hate turbo tax, I would hate working there even more updating the software each year for all of these rules.

I stayed up to date because the numbers from everywhere else didn't add up. So I did it all 'manually' until it made sense and made this discovery. I think it's been like this in NY State for years at least, but not sure.

It took hours to understand fully and this is relatively simple I'm sure.

thanks for posting the explanation, it definitely is something that seems really confusing. I wish they could simplify it, but I doubt it will ever happen.
