State tax filing
You only need to enter the percentage from your state. The rest will be exempt from federal but taxable to your state.
On the screen Which state are your $XXX.XX of exempt interest-dividends from? Check I earned tax-exempt dividends in more than one state.
In the dropdown, select your state and enter an amount. For example if you had $100 in exempt-interest dividends and your sheet says 10% exempt in your state, enter $10 (10% x $100).
On the next line, enter More than One State (the last choice in the dropdown). Enter the rest of your exempt-interest dividends. For example, if $10 was exempt in your state, enter $90 in More than One State ($100 - $10 you put for your state).
Most mutual fund companies have a tax center that will have a sheet showing the tax exempt percentage for your state. Or you can call the company for the information.
