Get your taxes done using TurboTax

OK......one has to be careful about whether @bsharpe37  is an Oregon resident, or a non-resident of Oregon

 

He/she hasn't been clear as to whether he/she is an OR resident or not..

 

.................But...if an OR resident cannot claim a credit for taxes paid to those four states, when the OR resident worked in any of those 4 states as a non-resident.  OR has a reverse credit situation with those four....taxes are paid to OR on everything from those four if the OR resident worked in any of them as a nonresident, and then the OR resident takes a credit on the non-resident tax return for any of those four states  .

 

Any other of the many states the OR resident worked in, the nonresident state gets to tax what income they had in that state first, then the OR resident takes a credit on the OR tax return.

____________________________

Granted, if the OR interview is asking about any of those four states, the OR tax return would actually be asking about any of them to eliminate them from taking the credit in the OR file...I don't have the OR software so I can't see how the OR interview words that particular set of questions.

But if bsharpe37 is a nonresident of OR...then this protracted explanation is wasted time & effort.
