State tax filing

Since each state has their own rules, the income from the nonresident state is often adjusted for the resident state rules.

  • Each state calculates taxable income differently. 
  • Each state has its own tax rate/ system.
  • You get the lowest of both categories as a tax credit.

You get credit for the lower state tax on the lowest taxable amount.
