State tax filing

At this point, my advice would be to edit your personal information is your federal return in the MY INFO section of your return.

  1. After logging in to Turbo Tax, select the MY INFO tab in the left pane of your screen.
  2. In the Personal Summary Page, select edit next to your wife's name.
  3. As you edit the information, there will be a selection for you to make indicating that your wife's state of resident on 12/31 is Ohio, which you will select from a drop-down menu.
  4. Then you can make the selection that she was a Virginia resident previously and then indicate when she became a resident of Ohio.
  5. Now if this information is entered correctly, it should flow to your state returns when you start to prepare those returns.
  6. If you did all the above steps correctly, are you receiving an error message regarding your P/Y resident status or your wife?
  7. Also check your resident information in MY INFO, to indicate you are a full year resident of Va.
