You can check with the former employer and ask why County Tax was not withheld.
My understanding (and apparently TurboTax's) is that the location of the place of work or business (or Taxpayer residence) determines the county tax due.
I understand that you did not physically go to work, but that bonus is based on work performed in that county.
The county would argue that the fact that your employer did not make the payment until you moved does not alter that fact that that the income was derived from employment in that county.
It would be the same as working December 31 2021 and getting a W-2 for that income in 2022. You might have moved Jan 1, but that w-2 income would be taxable by the state, and county, in which you lived and/or worked in Dec 2021.
The Bonus was paid in 2022, you had already moved, but the business (employer) hadn't. The county will still tax that income.
“Both the county of residence and the county of principal business or employment of an individual are determined on January 1 of the calendar year in which the individual’s taxable year begins. If a person resides in an Indiana county on January 1, or resides out-of-state on January 1, but has his or her principal place of work or business in an Indiana county as of January 1, he or she is subject to county tax at the rate corresponding to that Indiana county.”
“If the employee resides out-of-state on January 1 but has his or her principal place of work or business in an Indiana county as of January 1, then the withholding agent should withhold for the Indiana county of principal place of work or business.”
