Spouse with non-resident Massachusetts tax
Hi everyone,
We live in New Hampshire and my spouse and I filed married filing jointly on our federal tax return via Turbotax (2021, done and accepted). I work in New Hampshire and she (my spouse) works remotely for a company in Massachusetts. She will need to file a non-resident Massachusetts tax return.
Prior posts have mentioned that we should file separately for her (my spouse) Massachusetts return. After I filed our federal return (married filing jointly), I created in Turbotax a mock return for married filing separately for my spouse and obviously did not file for federal again. I proceeded to the Massachusetts state portion of my spouse's return. It is now asking the following in Turbotax:
"We need some information from your spouse's (referring to me, NH resident, NH job) 2021 tax return. Massachusetts wants to make sure both of you are reporting the same income and family information.
Enter your spouse's (referring to me, NH resident, NH job) federal total income and adjusted gross income (AGI). Then enter the total household dependents below to including your spouse's (referring to me, NH resident, NH job) dependents.
Am I going about this the correct way and what should I enter? Since we filed jointly on federal, how can I provide my AGI individually?
Thank you
