California Residency
I moved to CA for temporary work in Jan 2016 and moved back to TX in July 2016. I have never lived permanently in CA or temporarily before 2016. I believe I have always been a CA nonresident, including 2016.
On the residency questions:
Did you become a CA resident during 2016: No (I wasn't a resident, only there temporarily)
Did you become a CA nonresident during 2016: No ( I have always been a nonresident, I didn't BECOME one) Correct?
Were you a CA nonresident during all of 2016: Yes, I was never a resident.
However, every time I click through the options and then go back in, turbo tax has changed the middle question (become a CA nonres) to yes. And then at the end of filing state taxes, it shows I was a part time resident on a CA form and asks for the date I lived in CA before 12/31/2015. I never lived in CA before 12/31/2015, nor do I think I ever was a resident in 2016 or other.
Why is this happening?
