My son lives in Missouri but works sometimes in Wisconsin.  I am going to file a nonresident Wisconsin but I believe his capital gains are not included in Wisconsin since he lives in Missouri.  How do I adjust the capital gains so it is not included in the Wisconsin return?  in turbo tax?  do I override the schedule WD?

    It depends, if the capital gains/losses were from Wisconsin resources.

    the capital gains were not from Wisconsin sources.  so I still am not sure how to adjust the income in turbo tax

    When starting your son's state returns, start by adding Wisconsin first, and then add Missouri.  By doing this, it will trigger the questions on how much of your son's capital gains are from the state of Wisconsin.  

     

     

    By selecting yes, you will get a series of screens that look like this:

     

    You can delete your state returns and start them over to get these screens by following these steps:

     

    1. While in your Tax Home,
    2. Select State from the left side of your screen,
    3. Select Delete next to State of Wisconsin, 
    4. Select Delete next to State of Missouri.
    5. To add, simply add from the State from the left side of your screen.
