I was doing my state taxes and it applied the wrong county code and percent to forms. How do I fix this?

If you've already submitted your 2020 return for filing and missed it in your review and are just catching the error now, then you will need to wait until the State accepts and subsequently processes your return before you can file an amended return to correct the error.

I have not submitted it, it says correct county where I typed it,  but when it transfers over to state forms it is wrong county code and tax percentage 

[WendyN2]

I'd like to run a test, if that is ok with you "cwhite_13" - could you please let me know the State that is incorrectly applying your Federal Information? My apologies for asking a question with a question, however I would really like to see if there might be a problem and if so, I can then better assist you.

I created a tax return in TurboTax Online Deluxe with an Indiana tax return.

I was able to change Indiana county of residence and county of employment.  The software reported the county tax rate that was assessed and you can view the result in the software.  To view your county tax, follow these steps:

• Click on State down the left side of the screen.
• At the screen Let’s get your state taxes…, click Continue.
• At the screen Status of your state returns, click Edit to the right of the Indiana state tax return.
• At the screen Your 2020 Indiana taxes…., click Edit to the right of Credits and taxes.
• At the screen Take a look……, click Edit to the right of Indiana County Tax.
• At the screen Indiana County Tax, you are told the county tax amount and the name of the county tax rate that was used.

Are you able to replicate these steps?

You will find the 2020 Indiana county tax rates here.

I am using the turbo tax app on my phone and none of them options are available.  Everything is entered correctly until I go to download return and it isn't correct

[JamesG1]

Do you have the option to enter your TurboTax account and 2020 tax return through a tablet, a laptop or desktop computer?

You may find the keystrokes easier to manage on one of those devices.

[cwhite_13]

Yes and it shows the correct county here, but when I access my return to print it lists a different county and tax rate

[JamesG1]

The tax return that I created in TurboTax Online Deluxe displays the correct Indiana county and Indiana county tax:

• At the screen Indiana County Tax, and
• On the Indiana tax return.

[cwhite_13]

Ok, I printed it and is all incorrect on download both county tax percentage and code. I'm not sure how to get this changed. I am using the base edition 

[BillM223]

Can you tell us what county you are entering and what county and rate are appearing?

And please confirm that you got the same erroneous result when using Online as well as the mobile product.

Entered 82 vanderburgh county and showed up 76 steuben county. Yes same online as app

@cwhite_13

Thank you for your response. I am building a test case to reproduce the issue. Can you advise on these questions/

1. Where did you enter the county into TurboTax? For where you lived or where you worked (or both)?

2. Are you able to see your CT-40, line 2? What is the rate showing there? 0.0179?

3. Are you able to see your IT-40? At the top where you see "Enter the 2-digit county code...", do you see "76" in each appropriate place?

Thanks!

[cwhite_13]

Yes that I put vanderburgh in both and it shows the tax rate and county you stated in the form I review to print
