State tax filing

The credit is based on your input.

These are the steps:

While going through the VA return, there is a screen that says, Here's the income that VA handles differently.

  1. Under Retirement, you select Retirement Income Adjustment, start
  2. Have you ever lived outside VA? select Yes, continue
  3. Did you make contributions to a plan when you did not live in VA? select Yes
  4. Did your state tax your contributions? select Yes
  5. You get a deduction! Enter the amount taxed by another state

 

You can see details at VA subtractions under Retirement Plan Income Previously Taxed by Another State.
