State tax filing
@ali21471 --
With regard to your U.S. federal tax obligations, I lifted the following from this website: https://www.taxnotes.com/featured-analysis/canada-us-tax-treaty-and-americans-canadian-source-income...
"Under Article IV of the Canada-U.S. tax treaty, the United States has further guidance for dual residents determined to be Canadian under the tiebreaking rules. If a person is determined to be Canadian but has a U.S. green card, the person can claim the benefits of the treaty and be treated by the United States as a nonresident for U.S. income tax purposes. This means the person will only be taxed on the U.S.-source income and not the person’s worldwide income. However, the person must file a timely nonresident U.S. income tax return (Form 1040NR or 1040NR-EZ) and must disclose the treaty position by filing Form 8833, “Treaty-Based Return Position Disclosure Under Section 6114 or 7701(b).”11
I would note that TurboTax does not include Form 8833.
