Enter a state prior-year overpayment applied and a state tax refund

When you enter a state prior-year overpayment for a client, UltraTax CS includes the amount as a deduction on Form 1041, Page 1, line 11 and uses the amount on the state return as a payment toward the current tax. To enter a state prior-year overpayment applied and a state tax refund, do the following:
  1. In the client's return, open the
    StPmt
    screen in the
    Payments
    folder.
  2. Enter the state prior-year overpayment information in a section in the input screen.
    note
    If you used UltraTax CS to prepare this return in the prior year, the application automatically proformas the overpayment applied to the
    StPmt
    screen.
  3. Open the
    Income
    screen in the
    Income
    folder.
    note
    If you used UltraTax CS to prepare this return in the prior year, the application automatically proformas the total amount of the state tax overpayment to the
    Income
    screen.
  4. Enter the total amount of the state tax overpayment (not just the portion applied to the next year) as other income in the statement window for the
    Other income
    field.
  5. Enter a postal code in the
    Postal Code
    column in the statement window.
  6. Enter the code
    2
    or
    5
    in the
    State Use
    column in the statement window.
  7. Select
    Done
    to close the statement window.
