State tax filing

In TurboTax, you will prepare one W-2 from your employer but include all the information from the two W-2’s that you received.

Make sure that you do not duplicate any box 1 income or taxes withheld.  But do ensure that you are given credit from all of the taxes withheld.

You may need to click Add another state or Add another locality to post all of the information.

The one W-2 should satisfy the requirements of the Federal tax return.  Taxes paid to both states will flow to the Schedule A should you qualify for an Itemized Deduction.

The lines of state information will flow to the individual state tax returns and/or allow the software to compute the appropriate credit for taxes paid to another state.
