State tax filing

It depends, because each state interview is different.  On a number of state returns, you are given screens to allocate your income, but not so with either Alabama or Oklahoma, at least with wage income reported on Form W-2.  For that, you must use the W2 screen, and add a line for Alabama and enter how much income was earned in Alabama, then add a line for Oklahoma and do the same.  Since this is not what is on your W-2, you will likely have to paper-file both of these returns, and probably for California as well if California requires a copy of the other states' returns to apply the out-of-state credit.

 

Hopefully the system will allow you to e-file, but there are no other direct allocation screens for either Alabama or Oklahoma on wage income earned.
