My FT college student son is claimed as a dependent. His state of residence is Alabama but last summer he interned in Chicago for 2 months and earned W-2 wages. I am really confused on how to read his W-2 and confirm his residency status. His W-2 is 2 pages and has one for AL that includes his federal wages and AL state income taxes and a second page for IL with no federal wages but IL state wages and income taxes.
Turbo Tax is trying to get me to confirm part-time residency in Illinois which is throwing off his AL return and creating double taxed income. Is that normal? Should I only report his residency is Alabama?
THX!
