Eli Posted February 22, 2012 Report Share Posted February 22, 2012 Taxpayer worked in Alabama part year. He resides in Texas. His W2 shows $27896 in Alabama income & $1055 in taxes withheld for Alabama. When I enter this info on the AL40NR It shows Alabama income as 37209. How Can I get it to show the correct amount? Thanks! Eli Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeneInAlabama Posted February 23, 2012 Report Share Posted February 23, 2012 Eli, I haven't used ATX since 2009. I now use TRX. Did you show the AL state code on the W2 form and the TX code on the Texas W2? I know Texas doesn't have an income tax, but if the state code was left off, it might have carried over to Alabama. I made a dummy TR on my 2009 ATX program and it carried over as it should. Was the TP a resident of Texas at the time he worked in Alabama, or was he a part year resident? If part year, he should file AL40. If you can't do it any other way, maybe you can file a separate federal return and then file a separate state return. Alabama is not dependent on the federal return in any way. They can be filed separately. I have some clients that have to file a federal return but do not have to file a state return and I have some clients that have to file a state return but do not have to file a federal return. Hope this helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RitaB Posted February 23, 2012 Report Share Posted February 23, 2012 Eli, were you able to create the AL-NR e-file? I have one and I get a message that the forms are not approved yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
