Salary/Stock investment in one state and business in another state
Currently, I live in Virginia, Virginia is the state for me to report salary income and stock/option capital gain.
Now if I do some business in another state, e.g. open a gas station (or convenience store or something else) in NYC (hire my brother or relative to run it; or partnership, both sides invest some money), how does tax filing work in this case?
I will buy a small apartment in NYC if doing business there, and would like to go there almost every weekend. Virginia is still my primary residence address.
If I report all income sources in form 1040, how TurboTax know which income is from which state? How can TurboTax correctly direct me to both states? Business is in different state (not my address in 1040 form).
It is a general question, can software correctly direct me to different states?
I don't always use TurboTax, sometimes I use FreeTaxUSA. I post here because it is great public forum.
