Thank you for your response,
I am a little confused, and I would like a little further clarification,.
to reduce or deduct my state taxes on my federal, so I’m not sure what that process looks like as I’ve never done that before, so I’m a little confused when you make that statement, can you give me an example.
is what I did I filed my taxes, and in some instances I had to pay taxes to Virginia and others. I had a refund. Since my home of record is Texas I was allowed to use the military spouse exemption and not have to pay Virginia taxes. However, I didn’t find out about that until years later that’s why I had to file amended taxes for the prior years.
Virginia should not have taken any of the taxes however, they did but once I filed the amendment based on the Military spouse amendment, they returned all of the taxes they deducted from my check and I received those in 2023 for the prior for years.
do I need to claim that money from Virginia which was state tax that I should not have paid on my federal because I live in Texas and work in Texas and Texas does not have a state tax.
please advise, thank you very much
