State tax filing

As a nonresident of California, you are only subject to tax on income earned in California. 

 

You have to file a tax return in California only if your California adjusted gross income is greater than $14,797. 

 

Interpreting the amount of wages and miscellaneous income reported you can safely not file a nonresident tax return to California for this settlement income. 

 

It still needs to be included in your total income.
