Yes they sold the house in the non-tax state - so I was hoping that we could escape tax on the sale, there was unrecaptured 1250 gain.

So you're only doing  a part year return for the state they moved to, right?  That income while in the state without tax shouldn't be taxed in the new state.

Yes!!! Thanks so much for confirming what I thought. --And answering so quickly.

Use the part year allocation worksheet at the bottom of the federal information worksheet to allocate the income to the correct states.

Thanks again! I have previously allocated income per months lived in each state for some income, so I believe I can do that again for RR pension, social security etc that doesn't indicate a state on the 1099.
