Working with turbotax when filing state taxes in more than one state
I live in Mexico, am a resident of California, and have rental property in Oregon. Usually I file federal and California taxes, but this year the income from my Oregon property crossed the threshold so I need to file OR taxes as well. I had already finished my federal and CA return when I realized this, so I bought the OR state product to add to my taxes, but I don't understand how to work with 2 states returns at the same time. I'm looking for a way to get tax credits in one state because of tax paid in another. From my understanding there is a reciprocal tax agreement between CA and OR so I should be able to do this.
Currently I'm showing ALL income on my CA return, but only showing the rental income for my OR property on my OR return. As it is currently it doubles my state taxes by having me pay about $450 in each state, when before will all income showing on my CA return I was paying just the $450 in that state alone. Any help in using turbotax in this situation would be greatly appreciated!
