State tax filing

You may need to clarify the information on each form W2 you received. 

 

A.  Does the amount in box 1 for each W2 match the amount in the respective state box 16 amount so that when you add them together they are your total wages for the year?  

 

OR

 

B.  Does each Form W2 box 1 show your total wages for the year while the box 16's only show wages for each state?

 

In the "My Info" section be sure you have selected CA has your resident state and indicated you lived in IN until MM/DD/YYYY. 

 

Then, if  A is your situation you should enter each W2 separately in the "Income" tab.

 

If B is your situation, then only enter one (1) form W2 and include a state line for each state with the applicable state information from the W2s.

 

This should generate part-year returns for each state and separate the income per your W2s.
