Undergraduate daughter who lives with us in IL had TN wage income last year while at school but paid no TN taxes. This year Turbotax is requesting that I file TN return and wants to charge me for it. Do I need to pay TN taxes? Or is there a glitch in Turbotax?

    TENNESSEE    TN does not have a personal income tax.  It has a flat rate “Hall Tax” on interest and dividends.

    Thank you. I did come across that information and I agree with you. I don't know why Turbotax is tripping me up? There was no problem last year. I have had a preparer doing my taxes the last few years, but I am filing them myself this year. I am trying to see what "switch" I flipped causing this error.

     

    Thanks for feedback.
