Have you updated the Virginia state info since 2/8/19?

That is wishful thinking on your part...it's not law yet...whether it will be effective for 2018 taxes has not yet been established either


VA news, 8 Feb https://wtop.com/virginia/2019/02/deal-reached-for-virginia-tax-plan/ 

_________

"The plan set to be approved in the House and Senate next week, and approved in principle Friday morning by the Senate Finance Committee, would give many Virginians a $110 tax refund this fall, raise the standard deduction next year, avoid any cap on state deductions for property taxes, and include business tax breaks."

_____________________

"Virginia cannot process tax returns filed this year until lawmakers and the governor sort out what will become law and when any changes would be effective. Rules that set different deduction policies for state as opposed to federal returns will require Virginians use additional forms for state taxes either this year or next."

Yeah, I want to know when I can fill out the state form for Virginia.  If I fill it out now, would it work regardless of the rules Virginia actually implements?  I would think now, but....

The referenced tax changes were signed into law on 2/15. <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="https://wtop.com/virginia/2019/02/virginia-tax-changes-signed-into-law-refund-processing-can-begin/"...>
There haven't been any updates to Turbotx's VA state return yet! I hope they update the software soon.

I have yet to see anything that need changing for 2018 personal tax returns...doesn't mean there isn't something buried in the legislation
…..but the October rebates occur for anyone who has filed by 1 July....and the software doesn't need changing for that.

"...avoid any cap on state deductions for property taxes..." FYI, I am interested in that and assume that would warrant some update.
