State tax filing

If you live and work in WA and you don't have any taxes withheld for CA, you don't need to file CA return.

Nonresidents pay California income taxes on taxable California-source income. The source of income from services compensated by W-2 wages is the location where the services are performed, not the location of employer.

 

 If you've already paid your TurboTax state fees or registered your free version with your state return attached, you can't delete your state return. You can contact us for a refund.
