Will I be able to file on turbo from living in 2 different states and a 3rd state I did 3 month travel contract with

Hi HumFly,

 

The answer is YES.

 

You can used TurboTax to prepare separate State tax returns based on whether you lived in the state as a RESIDENT or NON-RESIDENT.

 

You would first consider the flow of when the income was earned on a by state basis, and whether you were a RESIDENT or NON-RESIDENT from January 1st through December 31st for each of those states.

 

Always do your end of the year resident home state last and try to exclude income that should be taxed in prior lived state along the way.

 

But, if you lived in one state all year long and are only trying to assess how each state tax return would be prepared, you would first consider the flow of when the income was earned on a by state basis from January 1st through December 31st for each of those states and exclude that portion income from each of the other NON-RESIDENT state tax returns.

 

You would ultimately be liable to you resident state on each of those other states and MAY receive state tax credit to reduce the liability in your resident state, once the dust settles, all at varying income tax rates by state.
