State tax filing
@Rick23slash -- If you never physically worked in Utah, your work income is not taxable by Utah. However, if your employer mistakenly withheld UT taxes, you'd have to file a non-resident UT return, showing zero UT income, in order to obtain a refund of those taxes.
If your W-2 showed UT withholdings, those fields would populate in TT.
Your income is of course entirely taxable by your resident state of CA, regardless of where you earn it.
If you never actually (physically) work in Utah, you should request your employer to cease withholding UT state taxes, and to withhold CA taxes instead. If your employer will not or cannot withhold CA taxes, you should instead make quarterly estimated tax payments to CA.
**Answers are correct to the best of my ability but do not constitute tax or legal advice.
