Okay, you need to enter your move dates in the Personal Information/My Info section of TurboTax. Jan-July in CA and Aug-Dec in UT. Enter all of your income in the federal section, and TurboTax will transfer everything to your state returns. Since you have no UT income, that tax return will be empty. All of your income will be CA income for 2023. And next year, if you have income, you will file just the UT return. Allocate your wages to CA.
File a part-year return for the state where you earned your income. If you had income in UT, you would file that return also, but you didn't so TurboTax will produce an empty return.
If you need to add this information after you've begun your return:
- Sign in to TurboTax and select My Info.
- A Your personal info screen appears.
- Question number 2 asks you the state(s) you lived in during 2023. Select your state of residence from a dropdown menu. (UT)
- You'll also be asked if you lived in another state in 2023. Answer Yes and a new section will appear asking for your previous state of residence. (CA)
- Fill out the date of when you moved to your current state.
- If the rest of your information is accurate, select Continue.
