NJ Nonresident pension exclusion issue
A quick summary:
Taxpayers are MFJ NY residents, spouse sold a NJ property in 2022 and is reporting sale on NJ 1040NR. Spouse also has a NY pension of 34k. Both taxpayer and spouse are over 62 and total income is less than 100k.
As nonresidents of NJ, the pension income should be non-taxable and end the issue, but Proseries is auto-filling line 22 and line 28a-c as though the pension is taxable, and then generating both the pension and other retirement exclusions, based on the factors above, which then cancels out not only her pension but all other income, i.e. her capital gain on the property sale, since that was only 20k.
I've tried marking the pension "not taxable" on the pension worksheet, but the issue is the "other retirement exclusion " still remains, even though there is no pension to tax.
I could just override and delete that, but I'd prefer to do it correctly since I will e-file this once e-filing opens back up, and the override will cause a bunch of issues with that. How do I stop Proseries from entering the pension and the exclusions? Is there even a way?
