Hello all,
I am single with no dependencies and I am resident for tax purposes.
During 2020:
January-July: I was working and living in North Carolina.
August-December: I was living in South Carolina but my job is/was in Illinois. (Due to COVID I was working remotely)
Do I have to file taxes for South Carolina? Is my Illinois income taxable in South Carolina?
In turbotax, depending on my choices and the input I give it either says SC refund 0$ or SC tax due 800$. In particular on state taxes for NC in "Summary of Taxes Paid to Other States" I add Illinois, but then it says "Enter the following information for income you earned while a South Carolina resident that was taxed by both Illinois and South Carolina." And it asks for "Double-Taxed Income While a Resident of South Carolina" and "Tax Paid to Illinois on Double-Taxed Income". I am not sure if my income from Illinois is double-taxed. What is a double-taxed income? My income comes from Illinois and I pay state income tax in Illinois, so I am not sure if I need to pay taxes in South Carolina as well.
Thank you for your help!
