Turbotax desktop software bug - PA non-resident work % calculation not working

 

I live in another state and worked in PA in 2023 for about 5 weeks,.. but my PA employer withheld taxes for my resident state.  There is a method for calculating the percentage of work days in PA vs total days in Turbo Tax, however it does NOT work.  There is a software bug and the software is not calculating correctly; nor am I able to manually enter the correct information direct in the form method.  That also is NOT working correctly.  

 

See below for some images of what I'm experiencing.  

 

Incorrectly stating  my 15 days worked  greater than  42  potential or 27 available!Incorrectly stating my 15 days worked greater than 42 potential or 27 available!

Below is screen shot of dates worked for company in 2023 in PA and the non-working days = 16.

I am going to assume you don't actually need to file a PA return. PA has a reciprocal agreement with several states where you don't file a PA return if you live in one of these states  Indiana, Maryland, New Jersey, Ohio, Virginia, or West Virginia.

See Which states have reciprocal agreements? - TurboTax Support

 

Your employer would / should have included PA pay and tax otherwise.

thanks for your response. I live in Minnesota, which unfortunately does not have a reciprocity agreement with PA.

If the working days calculation is not working properly, you could choose YES on the 'Apportionment' page and you'll come  to a screen where you can enter your actual Pennsylvania income.  You can enter the amount of PA income you calculated as 'business income' on the screen prior.

 

First, indicate your W-2 income carried over from Federal is 'taxable in PA'.  Then
