State tax filing

If you received a 2023 Form W-2 from a California employer, then you should file a nonresident California return. 

 

As a nonresident, you pay tax on your taxable income from California sources.

Sourced income includes, but is not limited to:

  • Services performed in California
  • Rent from real property located in California
  • The sale or transfer of real California property
  • Income from a California business, trade or profession

See this California webpage for more information. TurboTax will complete the appropriate forms based on your entries.
