I received prize money from a show in California.  I have a 592-B and the taxes were withheld.  How do I enter the sales tax withheld on my federal return and where can I get the 540 NR form to file with Califonia?

You won't enter Form 592-B information on your federal return, but in the state portion of TurboTax.

 

To enter your Form 592-B information in TurboTax Online:

 

  1. Open TurboTax Online
  2. Select  Tax Home in the left pane
  3. On the  Hi, let's keep working on your taxes! screen, select the dropdown on the right side of the State Taxes box, then select StartContinue, or Pick up where you left off
  4. Proceed through the state screens until you come to Take a look at California credits and taxes
  5. Scroll down to Payments and withholding.  Select Start or Revisit to the right of Real Estate and Other Withholding
  6. Select  Yes on the Any Real Estate or Other Withholding Forms? screen
  7. Proceed through the following screens, making entries as appropriate

 

You can find Form 540-NR on the California Tax Forms search page.  The form is not yet ready in TurboTax.  See TurboTax's Tax form availability app for its availability date.
