Partial year tax calculation

I relocated from FL to SC in July of 2025. Due to bonus/raises, the approximately 60% of I and my wife's income for 2025 was earned while residing in FL. Why does the taxable income figure for SC represent our entire 2025 combined earning amount?

@hakeem11701

For part year residents of SC (which you are), and for the tax year you move, SC has their PY residents file either:

1) As a full year resident taxing all income.....but allowing you to take a credit for taxes paid to the former state.

2) File a Non-resident tax return for the entire year, and then, during the SC interview, you allocate what sub-portion of your Federal income was earned after moving to SC.

Make sure you are NOT using Option #1, since you get NO credit for income taxes paid to FL since you didn't pay any income taxes to FL.

Make sure you are using Option #2.....and that you have completed the SC income allocation process during the SC interview.
