Paying taxes on scholarships-does out of state student file in both home state and college state?

<p>

If any part or your New York scholarship or New York fellowship was included as INCOME on your federal income tax return, then enter it on the line for OTHER INCOME on your NYS income tax return.”

<p>Well, that seems pretty clear. regardless of the amount entered on the federal return, the only part taxable in NY is the NY portion of the scholarship.</p>

<p>I know it might be a nightmare, but call the Franchise Tax Board in Sacto. when they open tomorrow to sort out how to declare the CA portion of the scholarship only . . . without them thinking you’ve shortchanged them.</p>
