State tax filing
I'm glad you sent screen shot of Info Worksheet. I was able to enter Direct Deposit info for AZ, CA and NY. I got a red "X" on the Ohio worksheet and when I ran smart check it flagged that and said this was not available for paper return. I presumed Ohio would be electronic filing. I guess they are stuck in the 20th century. Or do you have a workaround? First time filing Ohio return. Again, never in all the interviews was direct deposit offered.
<<With TTD, you get one free state. Each additional state would cost $45, and it would be $25 for each state Efile. >>
Believe me, I know this all too well. First objection - I go to AZ once for four days and that costs me $70 for TT return and filing. So, this year I have five state tax returns, because two "employers (I am really a freelancer, not an employee - no benefits, no guarantee, can be fired just like that by not hiring again - and was a 1099 contractor for both these clients for many years until the misguided government thought I would be better off as an employee)" deduct state taxes wherever I work. Funny, I traveled all over the country for CBS and they only deducted GA (my Home state) taxes. Same with NBC. And as a Sch C contractor, only paid home state taxes. I'm paying $280 for state returns. I think TT is ripping me off for the $45 for each state return. Rip off because TT has all the information already to fill out state forms. How about a break after buying the first one? I paid $80 to buy TT Home & Business. $45 per state is an injustice. OK, rip off.
<<No, we can't see your return in this forum. >>
I missed this if I suggested it. I don't think I did.
Thanks for your help - at least 3 of the 4 foreign state tax returns should do direct deposit now that you showed me the Info Worksheets.
<<When you pay tax in a Non-Resident State, your Resident State gives you credit for that, so you are not double-taxed.>>
GA tax rate is 6%. They will not give you credit for amounts above that paid to other states.
