File a full-year California resident return if you filed a joint federal return.
If you file a joint return for federal purposes, you may file separately for California if either spouse was one of the following:
- An active member of the United States armed forces or any auxiliary military branch during the year
- A nonresident for the entire year and had no income from California sources during the year
A full-year resident return will include all your Georgia income. However, you can claim a credit on your CA return for any tax paid to GA.
