Resident state is Illinois.  Own property in both AZ and WI.  Sold one rental property in the non-resident state of AZ. 
My Step 1:  Completed the Federal Tax return in TurboTax.
My Step 2:  Completed the AZ Tax return in Turbo Tax.
My Step 3:  Tried completing the WI Tax return and it insists on taxing the capital gains from the sale in AZ.  How do I stop WI from taxing the capital gains that are not from WI AND I am NOT a reside of WI.

    It does not tax the capital gain- Wisconsin prepares the state AS IF you are a full-time resident, using all income, deductions, etc. It then computes the Wisconsin percentage of total income that percentage is applied to the  tax due.

    But it is.  It is taking my capital gains from the AZ sale, multiplying it by  ~70%, and then listing that value (top redacted value below) with the title:  Wisconsin Capital Gains and Losses

     

    The full capital gain amount shows up on Form 1NPR Line 7 Column "Federal Amount"
    The 70% value shows up on Form 1NPR Line 7 Column "Wisconsin Amount"
    Nothing shows up on Form 1NPR Line 7 Column "Non-Wisconsin Amount"

    In my opinion, the blank should be in the Column for "Wisconsin Amount" and some other value, either the 100% or the 70% should be in the Column for "Non-Wisconsin Amount"

    On another note - same Form 1NPR:  Turbo Tax is also putting my interest income, earned in my resident state of Illinois, into the column titled "Wisconsin Amount" vs the the column titled, "Non-Wisconsin Amount".
