File for taxes in Virginia or Nevada?

I am helping my daughter file her Federal and State taxes for the first time. But here is her situation; she has lived in Nevada for her college years, but as a resident of Virginia. Nevada does not allow out-of-state full time students to be residents of their state. In 2021, she both attended school (in Las Vegas) and worked (in Las Vegas), making enough money to meet the threshold for filing a tax return. Her federal filing required payment to the USG a total of $78.

 

The question is; in which state is she required to file? She doesn't seem to fit the Turbotax profile for a Virginia filing and Nevada doesn't collect state income taxes.

 

What should I do for my daughter?

 

Thank you in advance
