If you earned income while in CA, it is taxable income. If you didn't earn income from CA, it isn't taxable. The state laws are constantly changing and CA rules are as listed. If you received income from working in CA, then it would be CA source income. However, if you received the money regardless and the trip was just a business trip, then it would not be CA source income. Since I don't know the details of your work, I don't know if you went to CA and sold widgets or close a million dollar deal vs stopping in to check on operations, I can't say definitely taxable without knowing more. I bet you do at this point!
