Thank you for your reply. Still having an issue. I am a non resident of Michigan.
1. Michigan Sch NR line 19 is correct. (5.26% of my income is allocated to Michigan through business income - Board of Director's position in the state of Michigan)
2. I go to "Topic List" in turbo tax and see a box for Michigan interview. This box is filled in with smaller blue square (not sure if the interview will open as It seems to open in "Start Your State Return)? This might be appropriate.
3. The standard deduction section on schedule 1 - Deduction Based on Year of Birth. I am 67 years old and believe I qualify for Tier 3 Michigan Standard Deduction. Worksheet 2: Tier 2 and 3 Michigan Standard Deduction Smart Worksheet fills in $40,000 on line 1, line 3 and line 7. Line 9 and 10 is properly prorated (5.26%) for personal exemptions
4. Line 11 shows $39,507. Per the tax form instruction from line 11, this amount of $39,507 should carry down to line 26. Line 26 is blank in turbotax?
5. My federal return does have pension income from a private employer. But none is allocated to the State of Michigan. Pension deduction worksheet appears to show information correctly.
6. I have no taxable Social Security or Military Retirement benefits.
In summary:
1. "I believe" I qualify for a Tier 3 Standard Deduction (for all/any income deduction) which should be reduced down to 5.26% as I don't think I would qualify for a 100% standard section based on income proration?
2. I can't get back to the question in turbo tax about "In MI, you are asked if you want standard deduction or Pension/ Retirement subtraction." I was initially asked this question during the turbo tax "Smart Check" and the question was asked to correct an error (I don't see this question on any Michigan form through turbo tax). So may have something blocking a calculation?
