Iam a non-resident with income in CT. I cannot find a place to enter line 44 refunds of state and local income taxes anywhere in Turbo Tax. Also since my spouse did not work in CT but had both earned and IRA / Pension income should I file single instead of joint in CT?

Thanks,

Chris

1.First, determine if you have anything to report based on the instructions. If you do have income on your federal that should be subtracted, it should carry over. If not, you can enter the information under Other Subtractions.

CT nonresident: Line 44: Refunds of State and Local Income Taxes Enter the amount of taxable refunds of state and local income taxes reported on federal Form 1040, Schedule 1, Line 1, or federal Form 1040-SR, Schedule 1, Line 1. If federal Form 1040, Schedule 1, Line 1, or federal Form 1040-SR, Schedule 1, Line 1 is blank, enter “0.”

2. No, you can't file single since you are married. The instructions say:

Generally, your filing status on your Connecticut return must match your federal income tax filing status...

Special Rules for Married Individuals

When one spouse is a Connecticut resident or a nonresident and the other spouse is a part‑year resident, each spouse who is required to file a Connecticut income tax return must file as married filing separately.

Thanks you for the concise and helpful response this is my first time having to file a CT non resident return. One more question. I made a contribution to my HSA account which was entered on my federal return but did not carry over to CT. Is it deductible?

Thanks,

Connecticut starts with federal income. Any deductible HSA contribution on your federal will be included on line 1 of Form CT-1040NR/PY. There is no separate entry necessary.
