Please help!!!! So I am TRYING to do my state taxes and very confused. I read different things about how to enter this and just don't know what is correct.
I am receiving Unemployment from IL but moved to LA just 1 month after I started getting unemployment. Do I break up the unemployment total between the 2 states even though IL paid it all to me?
Example of income to make it easier:
All income is from IL Unemployment and they took out Fed and only IL taxes
Total unemployment payment for 2024 = $1,000
Per month would be $200 (5 months total)
Would it be broken out to the following?
1 Month in IL = $200
4 Months in LA = $800
I DO know that any interest from bank accounts gets split between the 2 states.
Yes, you allocate unearned income to the state you were living in when you received it.
Thanks! So my calculations were correct above?
There is a line for each state indicating Unemployment.
