Why is only a portion of state return taxable this year?
Question on taxable refund. In the past year my entire state refund from the previous year was taxable on my current federal return (I itemize deductions). This year, only a fraction of my state refund is taxable and it is taxable on both federal and current state refunds. For example (numbers are not real), I got $500 NY state refund last year and I quoted this number in my current year federal return and TT is showing that only $55 dollars out of $500 will be taxable on my current federal return. It will also be taxable for $55 on my NY state return. Is this correct? I was under the impression that the entire state refund is taxable on federal return and none of it on state return.
