Question

Getting taxed for ALL of my wages, not what was earned in state.

I am filing in MI and MO this year.  I've only lived in MO since November, but I am getting taxed on all my income. My MO taxable income should only be $21,244 (wages earned), not $76,837. How do I reduce this number to be accurate?  See image below for MO taxable income. 

 

In the Taxes Paid to Another State section I put in the 'Income reported to MI"  but it didn't change anything. I also put in the amount I paid in MI taxes.

Missouri taxes Part Year residents an full year residents (in which case you apply the credit for the tax paid to another jurisdiction) or as a nonresident (in which case you indicate the Missouri source income).  

 

You can go back through Missouri and make sure you have the correct choice selected if you want to use the nonresident option.
