State tax filing

You are not required to file a return for VA.  Here are the VA filing requirements.

 

You must file an income tax return in Virginia if:

  • you are a resident of Virginia, part-year resident, or a nonresident, and 
  • you are required to file a federal income tax return, and
  • you have Virginia adjusted gross income equal to or greater than the amounts below: 
     

Filing Status                                               Income Threshold

Single or married filing separately             $11,950

Married filing jointly                                    $23,900

 

Who should file?

File a return to get a refund if:

  • your Virginia adjusted gross income is less than the required amount for your filing status, and 
  • income tax was withheld from any payments you received

You can claim a credit on your CA return for tax paid to another state, but only if you file a return for that state, otherwise it is not a tax imposed, only a tax withheld.
