For a person that lives in Washington, D.C. and commutes to work in-person full-time in Virginia, it seems like a Virginia state return is not required (given their specific tax circumstances).
If the person works remotely from New Mexico or Washington, D.C. for a few days a week, or a week here and there, do the person's state filing requirements change? At what point do they change?

The District of Columbia has reciprocity agreements with Maryland and Virginia. If you are a resident of one of these states, and meet certain conditions, you may not need to file a Virginia income tax return.
The rules for requiring you to file a nonresident return vary by state. Every state does have its own rules regarding nonresident returns. For example, nonresidents with more than $33 in Pennsylvania-sourced income must file a return, while nonresidents with less than $600 in Missouri income don't have to file.
For remote workers if you work as an employee but the employer who pays your wages is located in a different state, you may be considered a remote worker. Remote workers pay state income tax to their resident state and don't need to file a nonresident state return, but not always. Each state has different guidelines, so it's important to look at individual state rules to determine if you need to file for that state this year.
If you are unsure about your state's requirements, you can contact the Department of Revenue in that state, or visit their website. Most state websites have a section devoted to nonresidents and part-year residents.
Check your state's Department of Revenue website for more details.
