I have 4 mutual funds that earned exempt dividends in my home state and in other states. My 1099DIV document has section that identifies the percentage of the total dividend earned by state, so I can calculate the amount earned in each state. If I name each state and amount, does that mean I have to file a return to each state involved. The total dividend of all 4 funds is $2,433 - which shows up in the Dividends section of my home state (Ohio). The amounts allocated to each state is mostly less than $100. The highest dividend is $260 (Illinois)
