Are you only trying to allocate W-2 income to Nebraska? Or are there other kinds of income?
Does the W-2 show only Nebraska sourced income in boxes 15 through 17 of the W-2? Or are there other states?
It sounds like you are reporting income to Nebraska as a part-year resident. Was any Nebraska state income tax withheld reported in box 17 of the W-2?
If no Nebraska state income tax withheld was reported in box 17 of the W-2, the amount she owes Nebraska will go up no matter what dollar amount is entered into the TurboTax Nebraska state income tax software.
Nebraska Department of Revenue here states:
002.03 Partial-year resident individuals.
The Nebraska individual income tax is imposed for each taxable year on all of the income of every partial-year resident which is earned while a resident of Nebraska and is not taxed by another state, and the income derived from sources within Nebraska while a nonresident. The tax is a percentage of the tax owed by a resident individual with the same taxable income. The percentage is determined by dividing the taxpayer's Nebraska adjusted gross income as determined in Reg-22-004 by the taxpayer's federal adjusted gross income after the adjustments provided in Reg-22-002.04.
