Yes, you do have to file the GA non-resident return. And it is very possible that you will get the full amount refunded, but it depends on other factors. Each state handles resident and non-resident returns differently. The IRS has standard rules that all states follow, but state returns are a different story. TurboTax will do all the math, all you need to do is enter your W-2 and all of your other tax data on the federal return and TurboTax will transfer the GA income to the GA return. You will go through the non-resident GA return and verify the amounts before you e-file.
How do I file a nonresident state return? - See this link for instructions. You really just need to enter GA into the ''Other State Income'' box, so not a lot of steps involved. You can ignore the ''Tip'' since FL does not require a state income tax return. 🙂
