State tax filing

Thank you. I'm sorry but I wasn't very clear in posting my question.  The w-2 we received was incorrect - we moved and the income is not properly allocated between old state and new state.  Not sure if husband's employer will re-issue a corrected w-2 in a timely manner or at all and so was wondering if we could edit the w-2 within turbotax and still be able to efile or if we will be forced to file a Form 4852 and snail mail our return.


State tax withholding cannot be corrected after the fact.   The employer has already sent the money to the states.   All you can do is submit a state tax return for the state you legally reside in and pay any tax owed, and file a non-resident tax return  in the other state to get a refund of the tax over-withheld.
