State 1040 form has different boxes for Mailing and Legal Residence Address which Turbotax will not edit
Hi all.. hoping you can provide some assistance.
I am filing taxes on behalf of my grandmother who passed away and I am the executor of her estate. I've read many comments stating you only need to enter your own mailing address as long as it's in the same state which the resident lived.
However on my 1040 state return, there are two clear boxes for different entries. One says "City, town, or post office" which has my own City as the mailing address. The second box says "City or town of LEGAL residence". Turbotax copies the information for BOTH of these boxes from the mailing address you enter in "My Info" and doesn't give an option to enter separate addresses.
Since the State form clearly has two boxes for different entries, how can I best get around this? So far I clicked the "New Address" box on the state return but think a better option would be if I could edit the "Legal Residence" box. Any suggestions? Thanks.
