Iowa – Part-Year Resident IA 126

If you lived in Iowa for only a portion of the year, you should file a part-year resident Iowa tax return and allocate your Iowa income using the steps below:

  1. From within your TaxACT return (Online of Desktop) click on the State Q&A tab and then click on Iowa located on the left side of the screen, directly below the blue tabs
  2. Click Credits to expand the category and then click Part-year/nonresident credit
  3. On the next screen enter the Iowa portion of your income
  4. The program will proceed with the interview questions for you to enter or review the appropriate information

The information entered in this section will flow to Schedule IA 126, and from there the credit will flow to Line 51 of Iowa Form IA 1040.
