Thanks for the quick answer on this forum. I moved back to California, after living abroad for many years. My income was split between non US and US (CA) income. I qualify for maxing out the IRA contribution of 11k for both myself and as a spousal contribution for my wife (she does not work). I moved back to California in the middle of the year. I will make the contribution into the IRA accounts this week. Can I include the full amount of the contribution on the California return (the same as I have done on the federal return)?
If the answer is no, Turbotax knows that I only lived in California for 6 months. Why would it not just do this calculation automatically? Why would it leave it to the end user to input this amount as a free field. Obviously, I'm posting the question here, so it's likely someone would add the incorrect amount, especially seeing there is no explanation on what this field is asking and why.
