Compose a STATE return's printed-form line set deterministically (2025 IL-1040 / VA 760 / CA 540 / NY IT-201 / PA-40 / NJ-1040 / OH IT 1040 / NC D-400 / GA 500 / MD 502 / MO-1040 / WI Form 1 / MN M1 / SC1040 / AL Form 40 / OR-40) — correct line NUMBERS from the printed forms and whole-dollar rounding, with the state tax computed by the oracle targets internally. NC and GA start from federalAGI: NC runs the AGI-tiered child deduction, the independent itemize-vs-standard selection, and the Bailey/military/SS auto-subtractions; GA FORCES itemizing for federal itemizers (pass gaFederalItemized), runs the per-spouse retirement exclusion and Low Income Credit targets, and caps total credits at the line 16 tax. PA is CLASS-BASED and NJ is CATEGORY-BASED: transcribe the pa*/nj* class-or-category fields (PA: Box 16 compensation, per-spouse loss classes; NJ: the line 15-26 category nets — a category loss is suppressed per the printed rule, and the composer runs the pension-exclusion, Worksheet H deduction-vs-credit, EITC/CTC/CDCC targets itself) — federalAGI is NOT the PA or NJ base. OH starts from federal AGI: pass federalAGI + ohBusinessIncome and the composer runs the Business Income Deduction, MAGI-tiered exemptions, and the Schedule of Credits ordering (retirement/senior/CDCC/exemption credits before the joint filing credit's line-11 base). Workflow: run compute_return first for the federal substrate, compute any state-specific components the citations describe (additions, subtractions, credits without targets — disclose each), then call this ONCE and report its line set VERBATIM. Never hand-assemble state line numbers: transposed lines on correct dollars are the dominant state error mode. ALWAYS pass taxableSocialSecurity and unemploymentCompensation when nonzero (VA/CA/NY subtractions are applied by the composer). ALWAYS transcribe the intake's state-specific block (e.g. ca_tax_return.ca_form540_schca: AB 5 employee-classification additions; va_sch_a fields; county/use-tax questions) — those fields drive composer inputs. For VA MFJ, pass vaYourVagi/vaSpouseVagi (the separate-VAGI worksheet) so the composer can run the Spouse Tax Adjustment worksheet itself. For MD, pass mdSubdivision (the mandatory county tax — line 28), mdEicQualifyingChild for the 50%/100%/45% EIC routing, and mdNetCapitalGainSubject from an agent-completed Form 502CG when FAGI exceeds $350,000; the composer runs the pension-exclusion, exemption-chart, CTC, poverty-credit, and local EIC/poverty worksheets itself. Maryland part-year returns (Form 502 line 12 proration) are not composed. For MO, split each income item per spouse (moFagiYou/moFagiSpouse etc. — Missouri combined returns compute a SEPARATE chart tax per spouse), pass the line 9/10 federal-tax amounts per the printed lists, and remember the NEW TY2025 100% capital-gains subtraction (moCapitalGainYou/Spouse); Kansas City/St. Louis 1% earnings taxes are separate city returns the composer does not produce. For WI, pass wiScheduleIAdjustments (IRC frozen at 12/31/2022 — post-2022 federal changes convert on Schedule I), wiCapitalGainSubtraction from Schedule WD (30%/60% LTCG exclusion), and note the Act 15 SB-16 retirement subtraction FORFEITS every credit — the composer enforces the forfeiture; compute both ways before electing it. For MN, remember the IRC is frozen at May 1, 2023 (2025 OBBBA items convert on Schedule M1NC → mnAdditions/mnSubtractions), pass mnSsAlternativeMethod when AGI exceeds the SS threshold (the composer takes the greater), mnAmt whenever M1MT preferences exist, and mnNetInvestmentIncome for the 1% NIIT; M1C/M1REF credit schedules are transcribed buckets. For SC, the base is FEDERAL TAXABLE INCOME — pass scFederalTaxableIncome (Form 1040 line 15 verbatim; a negative amount is preserved via subtraction line r), NOT federalAGI; pass scNetLtcgAfterLosses for the 44% LTCG deduction (net LT gains against ALL capital losses first), the per-person retirement/military/age-65 fields (military retirement is 100% deductible and REDUCES the same person's other two deductions — the composer handles the interplay), and federalEITC (the composer adds the 125% NONREFUNDABLE SC EITC into line 13 itself — never also put it in nonrefundableCredits); the 2025 state-tax addback for federal itemizers goes in scAdditions. For AL, the composer builds Alabama AGI from transcribed lines (alWages = W-2 Box 16, alOtherIncome, alTaxableRetirement* for the Schedule RS 65+ $6,000 exclusion — still $6,000 in 2026, HB388 died) — federalAGI is NOT the base; pass alFederalTaxPlusNiit (1040 line 22 + Form 8960) and alFederalRefundableCredits (EIC+ACTC+AOC+adoption+2439) for the UNLIMITED line 12 federal tax deduction, and remember overtime earned Jan-Jun 2025 is exempt and already out of Box 16. For OR, pass the federal-tax-worksheet components (orFederal1040Line22, orFederalPtc from 8962 line 24, orFederalAoc/orFederalRefundableAdoption — the EITC/ACTC are NOT subtracted) for the AGI-capped line 10 subtraction, taxableSocialSecurity (subtracted in full), or2024TaxLiability for the 9.863% kicker, and the Kids Credit inputs (orKidsUnder6 + addbacks); OBBBA tips/overtime/vehicle-interest are CLAIMED for Oregon via OR-ASC codes 390/391/392 in orSubtractions but added back for the Kids Credit test.
