[ Background ]
We moved from CA to FL in the middle of 2022
We submitted our itemized 2022 taxes in 2024 (TurboTax Deluxe). It was filed late.
Paid Federal taxes due in 2024
Received CA State Refund for $2000 in 2024 (Received in 2024 since it was filed late)
[ Question ]
In TurboTax Deluxe 2023, do we still put the $2000 refund for our 2023 taxes even though we actually received the refund in 2024 or set it to $0 and put $2000 in for next year's 2024 Taxes?
These are the fields available when editing the CA refund:
State or Locality: California
Total Refund Received in 2023: 2,000
Total of all your payments and withholding: 4,500
Tax Year of Refund (usually 2022): 2022
I have a feeling I should
1. Set Total Refund Received in 2023 to $0
2. In next year's filing, set:
- Total Refund Received in 2024: $2000
- Tax Year of Refund: 2022
A bit worried I will forget to remember putting it in for next year's taxes. Will TurboTax remind me I didn't apply the credits yet in next year's filing? (This is assuming I should set it to $0 this year and $2000 next year)
Note: I rounded the dollar amounts to make it easier to understand.
