I think it's the other way around. Move into CA, you
include the expense as an adjustment to CA income. Move out
of CA you don't include the expense as an adjustment to CA
income (Column e of the CA540NR).

Do you qualify for free tax assistance? The number for the
Volunteer Income Tax Assistance office is 1-800-829-1040.

If you want to do it yourself, look for one of the
inexpensive, or free, software companies on line, such as
Tax Act. The question and answer option will take you
through it all, and help you fill out the forms you need to
file, based on your answers.

Hope this helps.

You will need to do a part-year resident return for AZ and
CA. Report on each of those the amounts of money earned in
each of them. Report the moving expenses on the CA return.

I just moved to Arizona and have income in AZ, I moved from
CA. so do I need to do 2 tax returns one for each state,
also as far as moving expenses and interest earned, and
deductions, which return do I do all that on. I want to do
my taxes myself since I am broke and everyone wants $125
plus, can someone please respond and work with me through
this process, if you have a email address feel free to email
me at the above address, I plan on doing my taxes in the
next month but I want to be super prepared before I jump
into this.

Please someone with a good heart help me!
Thanks in advanced.
