Hi Dawn,
I was able to follow your guidance and create a MA non-resident return, then a partial RI return, and finally a partial CT return. However, while creating the RI and CT state returns I was asked some questions that I made assumptions about. I want to confirm these assumptions. I was not able to find help in TT for the fields that TT was asking me to complete.
Partial RI return:
1) TT asked for the income. I assumed TT meant Box 1 or 16 (same amounts) on my W2. Was this correct?
2) TT asked for the MA tax. I assumed TT meant Box 17 on my W2. Was this correct?
3) TT asked for the Adjusted Gross Income from my MA NR return. I tried to find the AGI on my MA return but TT wouldn't let me see the return. I don't know why. I decided to use W2 Box 1 or 16 again. Did I use the wrong figure?
TT said m RI return had no payment or refund due. This seemed reasonable.
Partial CT return:
TT asked basically the same questions as my RI return so please confirm if I complete the CT return the same way. TT said I had a $3 refund for CT.
One new question. I had property damage from the hurricane last August. I put in an amount and completed my Federal and State returns. Then I realized that I made a mistake and increased the amount of the loss on my Federal return but nothing changed on any of the returns. Is there a max amount for damage that is limiting the deduction?
Best,
Tim
