State tax filing

The download version is paid so you will not be able to delete and start fresh. You will need to :

 

  1. Revisit the personal info section and be sure made money in another state is checked.
  2. Input all of your federal income and complete the federal review. 
  3. Then go to NJ and go through the income screens again so that you can allocate income properly.
  4. Once NJ is complete, move to NY which will tax all income and give you a credit for the double taxed NJ amount.

 

Because you are on the desktop version, you can switch to Forms mode and see how the numbers are flowing. 

  • You can look for red exclamation marks which show something is missing. 
  • You can also find numbers that are incorrect and right click to data source to the origin of the issue. 
  • All corrections should be made in step-by-step so as to not void the accuracy guarantee.
