How is interest and dividend income allocated for non-resident pa tax return

client moved to florida mid year with no earned income except interest and dividends.

Interest and dividends are not properly called "earned" income.

For each entry use Ctrl + E and put the appropriate state in the right hand column. A bit of research on your part may save you paying to file for FL. If you don't need to file for FL, use US for the other state.

There is a good article on wages, https://proconnect.intuit.com/community/help-articles/help/allocating-w-2-wages-and-withholdings-for... apply the same principal for interest and dividend.

It's not a non-resident PA; it's a part-year PA. And I would allocate by dates the income was received.
