tax applied to lived in state incorrectly rather than state where tax should be applied

I am using Turbo Tax Home & Business and I have a lived in state of Georgia and downloaded the additional State of Ohio where I have a rental property that I sold in 2021.

 

When I enter the Home sell data it is inadvertently  posting the tax to the lived in state of Georgia rather than teh appropriate state of Ohio where the property is.

 

How to change this?

 

Thanks

Your capital gain is taxable both by Ohio (because that's the property location) and by Georgia (because it's your resident state).  But you'll be able to claim an "other state credit" on your GA return for the taxes paid to OH, so you won't be double-taxed.

In TurboTax, be sure to complete the non-resident OH return before you do your GA return, so that the program can calculate and apply the credit correctly.
