Get your taxes done using TurboTax

You will only need to file a Tennessee state tax return if you received more than $1,250 in taxable interest and dividends ($2,500 if you are married filing jointly).

 

When your address on your 1040 is in Tennessee, TurboTax creates a state return. if you do not meet the filing requirements you do not need to file the return. Tennessee does not tax wage income only interest and dividends.

 

If you do not need to file, you should delete the return. 

  • Select States in the Black bar on the left side of you screen.
  • Select the Trashcan Icon to the right of the state.
  • You will need to confirm that you wish to delete the state return.
