State tax filing

If you are a resident of Virginia, but have income from North Carolina, then you will need to file tax returns for both states.  There is not a reciprocity agreement in place with these states. 

You will file a Virginia resident tax return and claim a tax credit for taxes paid to North Carolina.

You will file a non-resident North Carolina return to report the income that was earned in North Carolina. 

After finishing your Federal return, you should complete the non-resident (NC) return first and then your resident (VA) return.
