You do not have to file a return for PA since you moved the last few days of the year. File a full year IN return and delete the PA return from your file if you choose. Continue reading for other options.
If you had any PA state tax withholding, you may want to file the PA return. In that case you can still file as a full year IN resident and request a full refund from PA. You would put zero wages in the W-2 for PA and include all wages in the state section of the W-2 for IN.
If you decide to file the PA return for the 3 days, then TurboTax will include any necessary forms including the Schedule G-L. This schedule allows you to claim credit for taxes paid to another nonresident state when income is being taxed by both states. If you file the PA and IN both would be part year resident states and this credit would not apply.
You would pay tax to IN on the income earned only through 12/27 and the remainder of your earnings would be reported to PA. Again, this proration should be done on your W-2 entry in the federal section of your return. Enter the state withholdings exactly as they appear because these are the exact amounts paid to each state.
In 2022 you will file a full year resident PA return.
