State tax filing
Actually, you may set up different sales tax rates for each state where you lived and different periods of the year.
On the "Places You Lived" page, set up a separate line entry for each sales tax rate (click on screenshot below). Since you
moved to a different state, enter each state, the dates you resided there, and
the total state and local sales tax rates..
The easiest way to find this section of TurboTax is to open your return and search on "sales tax deduction", then click on the "jump to" link to go directly to the start of this topic.
Note: You have the option of deducting either Sales Tax or State/Local Income Tax. You cannot deduct both. TurboTax will help determine which is better for your tax situation. See this post for more info: Should I Deduct Sales Taxes or State Income Taxes?
