Question

Changed legal residence from LA to CA but 1099R Pension withholding was not notified so 100% LA

I moved from Louisiana to California at the end of 2023, but I’m realizing now I never made a change of address with Fidelity who manages my pension. Now, my 2024 1099R form reflects all withholding to Louisiana rather than California.

 

I will now make the change with Fidelity for the change of address but what do I do for filing my 2024 taxes.  I have heard that Fidelity will not change or re-issue a  1099 form.

    You must file a non-resident LA tax return, on which you show the LA withholding but to which you allocate zero LA income.  This should result in your receiving a full refund of the mistakenly withheld LA taxes.

     

    Your 2024 1099-R income is of course taxable by your current home state of CA.
