VA locality required for a NONRESIDENT?????

[Bob53371]

Why does VA non resident return require a VA locality?

If you click the yellow ? on the toolbar when youre in that entry box, you'll find this

Good evening,

What if there is NO income derived from VA sources and you are required to enter a VA County or City?  ProSeries requires this for e-filing.

Please advise.

Thank you.

"if there is NO income derived from VA sources" why are you filing a VA nonresident return?

[Charles S]

Thank you.  However ALT H does the same thing.  The instructions still do NOT tell you what to put in if there is NO Virginia income from a Schedule C that needs to be included in the VA Nonresident tax return.

Much appreciate your quick response.

Thank you again.

Also, in regard to your question, there is pass-through passive income from a K-1 that is VA source income.  This is in addition to my Schedule C income in NY.

Thank you again.

That K-1 is VA source income then. But I think you are saying the software wants a VA code for the Sch C.

[Charles S]

Good morning,

I have a K-1 that has VA income and VA taxes withheld.  This necessitates the need to file a VA Nonresident tax return.  I also have Schedule C income that is strictly NY-source income and has NO relevancy to VA.  However, the VA tax return carries over the Schedule C info from my 1040 onto form VA FED/CG.  Therefore, VA is seeking on line 5 a First Schedule Locality from the drop-down menu.  They do NOT accept 0300 as a code.  Only localities from the drop-down menu.  There is NO "Out of State:" here.

Intuit has been no help for over 60 minutes so far.

I have the same situation,  Did you ever receive an answer for this issue?  Sc C is MD income - no out of state choice.

[Charles S]

Intuit refuses to find the answer to this issue.  When there is NO income allocated to VA, there should be a drop down "Out of State" as an answer.

[Charles S]

No response from Intuit.  Just very frustrating!!!!

What did you end up doing? Intuit just left you hanging? I have the same problem and Virginia says I must use the code 0300.  

[Charles S]

Intuit leaves us all hanging here.  No correction to this problem.  I used a code closest to the East as a NY resident with VA source income.  I believe I used Alexandria.

[LMH]

I believe I entered the code where the w-2 was earned but did not include the income on the VA non resident from the Sc C

[Charles S]

When there is no W-2, and you receive passive income or Schedule C income, the software requests where the income was earned.  There is no out of state code available for entry.  intuit refuses to fix the VA software issue.

You are filing in Virginia only to get a refund? No taxes are owed? So it doesn't really matter which county you pick. The Dept of Taxation will pay the refund.

A couple of years ago there USED to be an "out of state" answer to this question, and for some reason this option vanished! So I have been using my own Virginia county (Rockbridge) and figured that the local Commissioner of Revenue will sort it out. Especially if no taxes re owed. Perhaps this is not a ProSeries issue, rather a Virginia Dept of Taxation irrational change.

[Charles S]

Thank you Greta.  Yes, the issue is a VA issue.  However, Intuit, being the company it is, should explain the situation and get it resolved.  It waste’s everyone’s time.  It should allow Out of State as a drop down choice.  Yes, many years ago, it was an option.

Stay well and safe.
