加州是否承认China Treaty (article 19)？

找到官方文件了， https://apps.irs.gov/app/vita/co ... evel=foreignstudent
原文： Federal Income Often Used By States
Income tax treaties do not cover state income taxes. However, many states define income based on federal taxable income or federal adjusted gross income.

Some states allow students and scholars to exempt the same amount of income from state taxes and, in other states, they must add back in the treaty exclusion. Some of the states that do not allow treaty benefits are: Alabama, Arkansas, California, Connecticut, Hawaii, Kansas, Kentucky, Maryland, Mississippi, Montana, New Jersey, North Dakota, and Pennsylvania. Contact your state tax department to determine the allowance of tax treaty benefits when calculating state income tax.

The India treaty allows students to claim the standard deduction on their federal return. Since some states base the state income tax on the federal adjusted gross income, Indian students do not always benefit from their treaty provisions on the state returns.

所以加州需报country tax treay 得金额。

我参考的是这个链接：https://travelafterwork.com/2020/03/20/foreign-students-tax/
根据帖子的指导，我在联邦税层面加入了【-5000】，假定现在系统【Turbotax】最上方显示退给我州税的数字是 A 【正数】;
然后我又去【 Your State Returns 】 下的 【Income Exempted by U.S. Tax Treaties】加上了5000.
这时候数字A 就变少了100多刀；

这么做是不是就可以了？

最后一句话啥意思，这5000到底是可以减还是不可以，如果可以填在哪里？

多谢各位！

报州税时，还是老老实实加回去吧，  ^_^  。

报联邦税，符合要求可以减；报州税时，如果属于list里的那几个州，就得再加回去。

貌似酱紫。

所以以加州为例，这么一减一加，如果不考虑tax brackets的差异的话，就白搭了呗？
