Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Yes, you need to file a tax return with the non- resident state.  3 Reasons:

 

1.  The non-resident state's tax system will be "looking" for a tax return from you.

2.  The tax you actually owe may be greater or lesser than the amount of the estimate you paid.

3.  Your resident state will not grant you an "other state credit" without seeing a copy of the non-resident state return.

 

You only enter the estimated tax payment on the non-resident state return.  The TurboTax program will carry over the actual non-resident taxes paid to your home state return, for purposes of the credit.
