PA State tax on federal savings bonds

[ejchosky]

I am preparing my federal and state taxes on TurboTax.  It is showing taxed owed on the state of Pennsylvania.  Correct tax was withheld from our w-2's     It could only be due to savings bond interest entered from a 1099-INT or Social Security, both of which are NOT taxable in my state.

The PA forms you need all look available. There is an active issue with Social Security entry. I believe you may have been caught in that issue. I have availability dates expected for state forms but not for technical support. Please give the programmers a day or two to work on things.

If you will please double check there are no other PA forms affecting you.

I have spoken to PA Dept of Rev - I just need my TTax to understand!

There are entries that I have not yet entered, but the amount is exactly what would be due for the interest income received from the savings bond

[ejchosky]

It gives me the option to adjust the income interest for PA Purposes, but I do not know how to go about that.  The adjusted amount requires a positive number and it gives me choices of OID adjustment, accrued interest, nominee distribution, us savings bond previously reported or other adjustment.  What figure would I have to enter in the box to remove the tax?

[ejchosky]

ok - sorry for all these messages.  put in the full amount, noted other adjustment - it took me to $0 owed.  DONE!

I am so glad you were able to make it through! Congratulations and thank you for your information.
