Question

I received a $350 COLA increase from my Indiana employer, even though I am retired and working PRN. I did not work in Indiana in 2024. Is there a problem, 0 days in IN?

I did no work but received a relatively minor cost of living increase. I reported 0 days worked in Indiana in 2024, which is accurate. Do I need to file an Indiana tax return or can I claim de minimus amounts were paid and taxed?

Indiana requires nonresidents to file a tax return if they have any Indiana-sourced income.

If this income is reported to you on a 1099-R as a distribution from a qualified retirement plan, it's sourced based on where you lived when you received the income so it would not be taxable in Indiana. Therefore, you would not need to file an Indiana return.
