Retirement tax questions
I have been a retired Virginia resident for 4 years. In the year 2020 I am now taking withdrawals from an IRA that I contributed to while working in the state of New York from 1990s - 2016. I too am confused by the questions TurboTax Deluxe 2020 is now asking: "Have you ever lived outside Virginia" well yes. "Did you make contributions to a retirement plan when you did not live in Virginia?" again, yes. "Did your state tax your contributions?" It is a traditional IRA, so yes, I paid income tax on the W2 wages I earned every year. As you follow this path, things indeed get messy......
So, I want to verify that the question TurboTax SHOULD be asking is: Did you make contributions to a retirement plan this tax year, IN 2020?? That ONLY taxed contributions to a Traditional IRA made in 2020 are to be considered here....
