State tax filing

If your domicile was in CA all of 2020, and all your income was earned in CA, then you file as a full-year resident of CA.

You find CA's definition of "domicile" on page 10 of this reference:

Your residency for tax purposes is determined by where you actually live, not by your mailing address.
