Tax help for military filers
It may. You are active duty military stationed in Virginia but another state is your home of record. This TurboTax Help states:
As an active duty service member, if you worked a non-military job while stationed outside your resident state, you will need to report those wages on a nonresident tax return to that state. If you are also filing your resident return, you may get a credit on it for the taxes paid on your nonresident return.
The TaxBook, page VA-2 states:
If the taxpayer is a member of the Armed Forces, or of the U.S. Congress, who is a domiciliary (legal) resident of another state, he or she is not subject to taxation as an actual resident of Virginia even if an abode is maintained in Virginia for more than 183 days.
If the taxpayer has income from Virginia sources other than from active duty or congressional pay, Form 763, Nonresident Income Tax Return, may be required.
You are to file a Virginia Nonresident income tax return to report the Uber income if:
- the income is sourced in Virginia and
- the gross income meets the Virginia filing requirements.
