I
moved from Texas to Kansas during 2018 and have mineral rights rents and
royalties in Oklahoma, so knowing I will need to file Federal, Part Time Kansas
Resident and Non Resident Oklahoma returns for the mineral rights rents and royalties
(Texas does not have state income taxes).
I purchased the 2018 Windows CD version of Deluxe software that prepays
the cost of my Federal Return and one of my two State Returns (Part Time Kansas
and Nonresident Oklahoma).
I
successfully completed the Fed Return in Turbo Tax and have not yet filed the
return. Next I successfully completed
the Oklahoma Non Resident return (bar coded form 511NR) on line via the State
of Oklahoma web site for the Oklahoma mineral rights rents and royalties and
have not yet filed the return. Finally I
prepared the Kansas Part Time Resident Turbo Tax prepaid state return during
which I encountered a Turbo Tax pop up at the beginning of “State Taxes” that
stated: “Tip: When preparing returns in
multiple states, it's best to do your nonresident and/or part-year resident
state returns first, and your resident state last”.
MY QUESTON IS TWO
FOLD:
(1) THE “TIP” REFERS
TO DOING A STATE RETURN. DOES “DOING”
MEAN THE ORDER OF PREPARING THE STATE RETURNS OR ORDER OF FILING
THE STATE RETURNS?
(2) WHAT DIFFERENCE COULD
IT POSSIBLY MAKE WHETHER I FILE THE PREPARED TURBO TAX KANSAS PART TIME
RESIDENT RETURN OR THE NON TURBO TAX OKLAHOMA NON RESIDENT FIRST? WHAT BAD THINGS WILL HAPPEN BASED ON THE
ORDER OF FILING?
