If I am a nonres of ID active mil duty, why is turbotax making me fill out Credit for ID resident for IncTaxPaid to other state?

OK...if you are in ID in the military, and your HOR is some other state?

 

You do not file an ID tax return at all, unless you had off-duty W-2 or Self-employed income in ID, or own a rental property/farm in ID that you get income from.....and even then, only as a non-resident.

Back in the My Info section

1) you do not indicate you were an ID resident at the end of the year...you use your HOR state, even if you are living in ID.  (Or you might use your State of Legal Residence (SLR) state if you changed your home state with a DD2058 at some time in the past)

2) you do NOT indicate you moved to ID from another state during 2022 if that is when you PCS'd there. Your HOR state is locked in as your Resident state, unless you changed it at some post with a DD2058.

What is my military state of residence? (intuit.com)

 

I want to be sure I understand.

• You are active-duty military.
• You are not an Idaho resident.

Did you get a W-2 for something other than your military pay.

• Depending on your Home of Record, you may owe tax in your home state.
• If you did have a job, other than the military, it will be taxable in the non-resident state that you earned it in.
• If this is the case, you would have to file a return in that state to get a refund or to get credit for taxes paid to another state.

The standard deduction in Idaho is the same as the federal.

• For single taxpayers and married individuals filing separately, the standard deduction is $12,950 in 2022.
• For married couples filing jointly is $25,900.
• If you were less, then these amounts you are due a refund.
• If you exceed these amounts, you can claim taxes paid to another state on your home state taxes.
