Residency changed in April 2023 from Massachusetts to Florida. I have completed Federal return and now working on Massachusetts Part-Year residency tax return.
What income needs to be accounted for on MA return? Dividends, interest, IRA distribution/annuities, etc. ?
What is considered non-MA portion?
How do I account for the income? when i received the monthly distributions? or can I just divide by 3 since I lived in Massachusetts for 3 months?
You'll need to sign in or create an account to connect with an expert.
As a part-year resident, you're generally taxed on all your income while you're a resident of Massachusetts, received from sources inside or outside of Massachusetts.
Non-MA portion is the income received while you were resident of FL.
Unearned income such as interest, dividends, capital gains, social security, and IRA distributions is usually taxable in the state you were a resident of when you received it.
If you know the exact amount of distributions received while you were living in MA, this is the amount that is considered MA source income. If you don't have the exact amount received during the time you were MA resident, divide the amount received by 12 and then multiply the figure by the number of months you lived in MA.

How do I allocate (split) income for a part-year state return?
Thank you.
How do you account for capital gains/interest/dividends earned from Trusts? In the state the Trust was established (massachusetts) or the state of beneficiary residency (florida)?
Trusts were established in Massachusetts, but I am now resident of Florida, filling out a part year residency tax return for Massachusetts.
