State tax filing

It doesn't need to be Connecticut sourced income to be taxed by Connecticut. You will need to pay tax on income earned during the time you lived in Connecticut unless you didn't work at all during the time you lived in Connecticut, then none of the wages would be allocable  to Ct.

 

Now to discuss Mike's issue above, if you have a taxable amount of social security, you will need to allocate that plus any adjustments.  Normally a great way to allocate is to determine how many days you lived in Connecticut and determine a ratio.  For an example, if you lived a Connecticut for 150 days, the ratio would be (150/365)(the taxable SS amount). Same with adjustments.  Also if you worked for the same employer in both states, you would apply that same ratio.  If it is different employers for each state, you will just report what income you earned in Connecticut while living there.

 

i hope this offers some guideline on how you would allocate income and other allocations the program is asking you to determine.  The ratio example is merely a guideline.
