My wife and I lived in Maryland for most of 2020, but on 2020-10-31 we arrived in Florida and have lived here ever since. In particular, we have made it our current state of residence (e.g. in 2021-03 we acquired Florida driver's licenses, registered to vote, etc).
Consequently, in TurboTax I said during the interview that we moved to a new state, and that Florida was our new state of residence as of 2020-10-31.
I finished my Federal return the other day. I do not recall TurboTax asking me any questions about what income was earned while we lived in each state.
But now I am doing my Maryland return. TurboTax correctly suggested that we file a Part-Year return. I am now at the stage in the interview where TurboTax is asking about "Additional Info for Part-Year Residents".
There are 2 text fields where I can enter numbers: "Non-Maryland Income" and "Non-Maryland Losses and Adjustments".
For "Non-Maryland Income", I THINK that I am supposed to enter here the sum total of all income (e.g. salary, interest, dividends, capital gains, unemployment benefits, etc) that my wife and I made starting on the day we arrived in Florida (2020-10-31).
Please confirm or correct my understanding.
Given that understanding, I calculated it by exporting from Quicken a 2020 Tax Report, which I then opened in a spreadsheet program and manipulated until I could calculate the desired sum.
Two income sources deserve special mention.
First, my wife has continued to this day to work remotely for her Maryland employer. But our understanding is that Maryland does not tax you if you live in another state, even if your employer is in Maryland. (You can see this in my wife's paystubs: once her employer was given our Florida address, they stopped withholding Maryland income tax.) So, I included my wife's salary from her Maryland employer starting on 2020-10-31 in that sum.
Second, I received unemployment benefits paid by Maryland. I have gone ahead and likewise included my Maryland unemployment benefits starting on 2020-10-31 in that sum. But this may be more questionable.
Please let me know if I did anything wrong here.
My final question is about the "Non-Maryland Losses and Adjustments".
What exactly is that, and how am I supposed to calculate it?
Thanks in advance.
