State tax filing

First, you are not required to file using filing status 4 if you file a joint federal return.  If you file a joint federal return you would file using status 2 and e-file all.  

 

Next, yes, TurboTax will handle all of these filings. You can use TurboTax online by having separate accounts for you and your husband.  Or you can use a download/desktop version to create up to five different returns.  You will be able to e-file all using either option.  

 

If you do not file a joint federal return then you are required to file using status 4 as you note. 

 

If you choose to file using status 4 then only your husband needs to create/file the VA nonresident separate return.  You do not need to file a separate VA return.  

 

Again assuming you are not filing a joint return then your husband would create/file a separate federal return w/resident SC state return and nonresident VA return with only his income/deductions.  

 

You would only need to create/file a separate federal return with resident SC return with only your income/deductions.
