@RobertB4444 Thank you - that makes sense. What I have trouble understanding is @DMarkM1's response to the initial question in this thread. According to @DMarkM1's response, even though @douglasjia's wife worked for the CA company for the whole year, if we assume that she was not a California resident for the whole year she would need to report 0 as her California "as if non resident income". And that's despite that fact that for the last 2 months of the year she was physically located in the CA.

 

So in my case, I was located in the California up until September and I continued to receive salary (wages) from my CA employee. Now, if we assume that I had not been a California resident I think that I would still need to report my California wages for the purpose of California "as if non resident income" field - is that correct? That's because I was located in California and my company's office was located in the California too.
