Deductions & credits
Well....Are you an OR resident, or a WA resident?
________________________
IF you are an OR resident, then everything is correct. OR can tax your income form everywhere, including the time you worked in WA state. OR would allow you a credit for taxes you had to pay to another state for working there...but since WA isn't taxing it, there's no credit and OR can tax all of it.
_________________
IF you were a WA resident, working cross-border in OR? Then talk to the employer about whey they didn't delineate the $$ on the W-2.
....(or maybe they did? Like If OR wages on the W-2 are lower than the box 1 $$, then those days may already be accounted for, and they just don't list the WA stuff on a second line for boxes 15,16,17 since there is no tax for WA earnings)
