State tax filing
Given your multiple state earnings, you may need to complete a California resident return since your parents live in California and claim you as a dependent. Here are steps you can take:
Pennsylvania Non-Resident Return:
- File a non-resident return for Pennsylvania and report only the income earned in Pennsylvania.
- You will likely have to pay Pennsylvania taxes on this income but can claim a credit on your California return. For more information, check the Pennsylvania Department of Revenue.
Minnesota Non-Resident Return:
- File a non-resident return for Minnesota and report only the income earned in Minnesota.
- You may owe Minnesota taxes but can claim a credit on your California return. For more details, visit the Minnesota Department of Revenue.
California Resident Return:
- Report all your income, including what you earned in Pennsylvania and Minnesota, on your California return.
- You may get a credit for taxes paid in Pennsylvania and Minnesota. For more details, visit the California Franchise Tax Board.
When using TurboTax, be sure to start with the non-resident tax returns to ensure the resident return recalculates correctly. For more guidance, you can refer to this TurboTax article on multi-state returns.
