Is turbox premier mistaken on treasury t-bill tax for California?

Hi 

 

My understanding is treasury t-bill purchased from platforms such as Schwab is NOT taxable in California. But

Turbotax premier added all t-bill income as taxable in California. Is Turbotax wrong? I have already filed the state tax, what should I do?

 

Thanks

    Hello

    Interest from Treasury Notes is subject to Federal taxes but is exempt from State taxes, independently of where you bought the note, in your case a T-bill, or from which state you reside.  You will have to file an amended CA return.  Good luck !

    Thanks for the response, isn't turbotax supposed to take care of this?

    False alarm, turbotax indeed took care of this.  Tbill is not taxed in CA filing.
