Hey guys, I am looking for some input and trying to better understand if this is just how it is or if there is something I could be doing differently to get a different result.
I am filing my taxes and the result I am getting from entering my info as prompted on TaxAct are telling me I am going to owe over $1k in state taxes, and based on some preliminary reading I've been doing I am confident this is due to part-year residency. I lived and worked in Pennsylvania from until September of this year, and then I moved to Oklahoma and began living and working here in October.
I am hoping someone can break it down for me to explain why, and also tell me if this is just how it's gonna be, or if there is a different way I can enter the information or a different service I can use to avoid this outcome. Reading on the forums here I got the impression that TurboTax lets you differentiate between the income earned in one state or the other, but some other services (like TaxAct that I was using) may not. Thanks in advance for all useful info.
