@globug666said "I have OH listed as the state wages if I enter OH and non resident it still makes those wages taxable. I suspect because it is listed as OH in the state box. "
Yes. that's what's happening. You need to use a workaround in TurboTax to get you your refund. At the w-2 screen split the boxes 15-20 W-2 info into 2 lines. On the 1st line leave OH in box 15 but make box 16 blank; leave the OH withholding in box 17. On the 2nd line put your home state abbreviation (WA)in box 15 and the state wages amount in box 16; leave box 17 blank..
Be further advised, Ohio does a convoluted tax calculation for non-residents/part year residents. It calculates tax on total income, then it calculates a non resident/part year resident credit, which it subtracts from the tax it calculated on the total income. The credit is calculated as your non-Ohio income divided by Total adjusted Income multiplied by the total tax. TurboTax (TT) does this by allocating your income as either Ohio or non-Ohio. W-2 income will be allocated by the state name abbreviation shown in box 15 of your W-2. TT will ask you, item by item, in the state section, how much of your other income is Ohio or non-Ohio income. Make sure that your non-Ohio wages show WA (Other state postal abbreviation) in box 15 of your W-2 screen, with the WA amount in box 16.
