Filing 2009 US Taxes

[Nich-Nick 3,354]

We got our ITIN! Also IRS claims they have my federal return. My question now is how do I file state taxes? Do I need to include stuff like the 2555 to exclude her wages? OR Do I just use the numbers from my federal return on the state form? (IT-201)

Can't help with that buddy. Texas has never had a state income tax, so I have no idea how that works.

Given that your profile doesn't seem to indicate where in the US you live, pointing you to the right website is not possible. More information is required to even provide that little bit of help.

Sorry!

Thanks!

Sorry, New York State.

Start here:

http://www.tax.state.ny.us/pit/income_tax/it203_information.htm

The following is a copy and paste from this publication:

http://www.tax.state.ny.us/pdf/publications/income/pub88.pdf

Special accruals

If you are a New York State resident who becomes a nonresident or a nonresident who becomes a New York State resident, either due to a change in domicile or a change of resident status, you may have to use special accruals to compute your New York State personal income tax for 2009.

You must accrue on your New York State part-year or full-year resident return any items of income, gain, loss, or deduction that under an accrual method of accounting would be reportable at the time of the change of residence. You must also accrue to New York State the items of tax preference subject to minimum income tax (Form IT-220, Minimum Income Tax) and the total taxable amount of lump-sum distributions subject to the separate tax on lump-sum distributions (Form IT-230, Separate Tax on Lump-Sum Distributions).

Hope this helps!

Do I use the same ITIN I used for my wife last year?

Do I use the same ITIN I used for my wife last year?

If she doesn't have a SSN yet. Otherwise use her SSN.

If she doesn't have a SSN and is ineligible for one, then you will need to file another W-7. On line 6e you will check "yes" and on line 6f enter her previous ITIN and the name in which it was issued.
