State tax filing
" after I updated my address in the software the program is now telling me I need to file an Oregon return."
In terms of state residency, the 1041 module in TurboTax Business defaults to the state in which the fiduciary is located (or the state the fiduciary otherwise enters into the program) - quite a few states base residency upon where the trust is administered or the residency of the trustee.
Obviously, the program default does not always produce the correct result so you should check both states to determine if the trust has a filing requirement (see links below).
