State tax filing

Yes, you are correct. If you are working entirely remotely from Nevada, your income is considered sourced in Nevada and you will not have to pay any California income tax or file a state return unless your employer withheld state taxes. If they did withhold California taxes, you would file a nonresident return and allocate $0 of your income to California to receive a refund of the entire amount that was withheld.
