Enter source interest or dividend income for a nonresident state tax return

Follow these steps to enter dividend and interest income for a nonresident state tax return. Each line in the statement should be a separate entry. You have to enter a ZIP Code, state use code, and source amount or percent for each line.
  1. Select the Income folder to open the
    Income
     screen.
  2. Select the statement button for the
    Interest income (including foreign source)
     field.
  3. In the statement, enter a description in the Payer column.
  4. Enter the amount in the Taxable Interest column.
  5. Enter a ZIP Code in the Postal Code column.
  6. Enter an amount or percent in the In State Source ($ or %) column to indicate the portion of the Taxable Interest column that's source income for the state in the Postal Code column.
  7. If you're preparing multiple-state tax returns, use the F/S column. Make duplicate line entries for each state, using a different ZIP Code and source percent for each entry.
  8. In the
    F/S
     field, enter
    S
    for all but 1 of the duplicate line entries. The federal application ignores entries coded with
    S
    .
  9. Enter
    F
    in the
    F/S
     field if the item applies to only the federal return.
  10. If the State Use column is available, select a code.
