Process multiple-state returns

Multiple state returns - Process part-year resident and nonresident returns for the same state

First determine which of the 2 returns you won't need to proforma next year. Only data for the last return you process for the state is available to proforma. This means that when you add the state return for the client, you'll first need to enter the return type that you don't plan to process next year. When you've finished processing that return, change the return type to the one you want to proforma next year.

    note
