I lived in Germany for 9 months and USA for 3 months in 2020, how do I account for where I lived the whole year on turbotax? It will only allow me to put the state I lived in, but the majority of the year is absent from turbotax. This is under Deductions and Credits, Sales Tax. Thank you.

For the sales tax you can only claim the time you were living in the US. For the time living in Germany you cannot claim any sales tax since you usually do not pay US sales tax while stationed abroad.

Therefore, you will only enter the state you lived for 3 months.
