Hi there - I'm in a similar situation and was hoping the two of you can kindly share your expertise!
We got married in 2017. For 2017, we filed jointly and took the itemized deduction. In 2018, I received form 1099-G for my state tax refund, which was for my state tax return in 2015 (when I filed taxes single). In 2015 & 2016, I took the standard deduction on my tax return (filed single).
Is the state tax refund (for 2015 tax year) I received taxable for 2018 taxes?
Thank you for your help!
