State tax filing
Not if your income from KY consisted solely of W-2 wages. Indiana and Kentucky have tax reciprocity. That means if you live in one of those states and work in the other, you only have to pay state taxes on your W-2 wages in the state where you live. So, assuming you were a full-year resident of Indiana, you're not subject to Kentucky state income tax on your wages. You would file an Indiana return only. For tax purposes, the income you earn in KY is considered IN income, and is fully taxable by IN. Note that the reciprocity agreement applies to W-2 wages only.
If reciprocity applies to you, in the My Info section enter IN as your state of residence and answer No to the question about having other state income.
Note: KY residents who work in IN must, however, file IN Form IT-40RNR, for purposes of figuring their IN county tax liability.
