State tax filing
Your answer is correct, but only for people who are completing the Oregon RESIDENT tax return. Many people who work in Oregon but live in Washington (for example) have to complete the non-resident tax return. People who work in Oregon, even if they live in another State, receive unemployment insurance from Oregon.
The Oregon non-resident tax return doesn't calculate tax the same way as the resident tax return.
The Turbotax change made for non-resident Oregon tax returns requires the taxpayer to calculate the percentage of unemployment insurance paid by Oregon, if they happen to have also received unemployment insurance from another State. Then you have to manually enter the taxable portion of the unemployment insurance into Turbotax. If you only received unemployment insurance from Oregon then you simply reduce the unemployment insurance amount by $10,200 and if there is a balance enter that amount into Turbotax.
