I have never filed a WV non resident tax return and I seem to be having difficulty doing so.  The electronic error states "can not be processed due to Schedule A Nonresidents/Part Year Residents schedule, ----Must include WV Income Tax withheld Amount"  This is a sale of property with sales tax.  I have entered everything and still get this error, not sure what mistake I am making, any and all help will be greatly appreciated.

West Virginia has been a pain when it comes to this situation.  Your client should mail in a paper return, attach the WV WV/NRSR with it. Even if you're successful in e-filing WV Dept of Revenue will still reject it later and send out a letter requesting the WV/NRSR and further proof of the sale.

good advice from das .. If you have problems that prevent you from e-filing that state return.. Then ask the client if they wish to mail it if they want to.. Then you can attach whatever you want to the return ....Just my opinion
