Divorce Year

Trinalynn — Mon, 09 Mar 2026 07:15:28 GMT

When doing my state taxers, I keep getting stopped to give the year of my divorce. But I did not get divorced in 2021. I checked my Federal status and it is correct. I actually tried changing it to single to see if it made a difference and it did not. (I changed it back.) Is this a question from my Homestead return? How do I change this?

Can you clarify your question?

What state are you filing?

Do you have alimony income or deduction on your tax return?

When I get to the point where I review my State Tax Information, I get the message that there is "1 Detail for you to review". And when I click to review, the next page says "Answers to Review". The next page it offers "Continue without reviewing" or "Fix Wisconsin Return". The next page brings up the Schedule H: Line 5 requesting a date. It will not allow me to make at change to "Did you get divorced in 2021?" And I can not continue without entering a date.
