Drake Tax - 1040: Part-Year and Nonresident States

Multiple part year (PY) state returns generating, but one should be a nonresident return

Generally, state returns follow the part year residency status entered on federal screen 1. Some state data entry screens provide an override that allows the taxpayer to be defined as a nonresident of that state in cases where PY is entered as the resident state on federal screen 1.

If an override is not available, you will have to complete and either print or e-file the PY states. You can then generate a nonresident status for the state in question by entering another state on screen 1 as resident state.
