NH does not have a state income tax. My W2 shows that I live in NH and that all of my work was in NH. Why does TurboTax still try to get me to do a NH return?

UPDATED FOR TAX YEAR 2019

New Hampshire requires a tax return only if you had taxable interest or dividend income of more than $2,400 or $4,800 (if filing jointly).

New Hampshire does not tax an individual's earned income (W-2 wages). The state does tax, at a 5% rate, income from dividends and interest.

If you are below the filing requirements, just ignore TurboTax's suggestion to prepare a NH return.
