Hi, I have the same sort of question as the last comment. This still isn't making sense to me. All of my unemployment income is from NY sources but was all received in OH. I allocated all of the income to NY but don't understand how to allocate the exclusion.
"New York Resident Period" screen :
For the first screen where I am allocating my unemployment compensation exclusion of -$10,200 (listed as federal income here), it asks how much of this exclusion was received when I was a NY resident. I put 0 because I received all unemployment income in OH. This much I think is right (correct me if I'm wrong) but the issue comes a couple screens later...
"New York Nonresident Period" screen:
This is when I run into the issue. It's asking me to allocate the unemployment compensation exclusion of -$10,200 (now listed as NY non-resident income) to NY sources. I think all of the exclusion is attributable to NY since my unemployment income was all from NY. But, what do I enter in the box? -$10,200 or +$10,200? It seems entering it as a negative number would make better logical/mathematical sense, but it feels unintuitive. Please advise on if I should enter +/- $10,200 and if all other steps I explained here are correct.
Or...do I go rogue and enter 0 because NY is not honoring the exclusion? Surely TurboTax doesn't expect us to keep up with this legislation and do all kinds of mental gymnastics/read their mind. Not sure what I'm missing.
Thank you!!
