Multiple states filing

YP55 — Tue, 10 Feb 2026 10:42:56 GMT

Hello.

I am retired NC resident for about 3 years.

I also have a rental property in SC.

I also still have W2 from my former employer that pays my Equity & Long-Term Cash Plan, taxing it in PA, where I use to live.

So, besides Federal return I need to file 3 States returns: NC, SC and PA.

After I finished all federal and state taxes, I see weird inconsistencies in the way TT software displays information.

On the last screen when TT is saying that everything is checked for accuracy, I can see Federal and all 3 states.

But

On the Tax Summary screen PA does not show at all

and

on the final States screen I see PA without saying that it’s for Nonresident.

I will attach two screenshots to illustrate it.

So, my question is: Will you be fixing this or I can just ignore it, because when I look at forms all states are there?

My second question is this:

Why TT is forcing me to do PA Schedule E for my SC rental. It should not be taxable in PA. How can I delete it?

My third question is this:

My former employer is saying that this will be last time I will be receiving W2 with taxes withdrawn for PA. But if I check the checkbox indicating that it will be final, TT is asking later to uncheck it because I am nonresident of PA. Any ideas why?

Thanks for your help.

Don't know the answer to some of this stuff....But did you Hit the EDIT next to the PA tax listing to go thru the entire PA Q&A there? That should allow you to run thru teh PA Q&A to indicate it is for a Non-resident, then ask you questions as to what $$ belong to PA and what $$ do not. That should (?) take out the SC rental $$ as PA income.

Yes, I did. I tried with check box " Not taxable in PA" and without it, but Schedule E is there no matter what.

Would it be OK to just delete it in a Form View or it's better just to leave it as is? Taxes seems to be calculated correctly.

Please do not make changes directly in the forms mode. Especially if the taxes seem correct.

If you change the forms View there may be unforeseen consequences to other areas of your return.

In addition, TurboTax can NOT guaranty the accuracy of your return.

Thanks John. I agree. I just will leave it as is. My taxes not changing because of that.
