Remember you are only answering for the calendar year 2019 not necessarily what is current.  Also, you didn't mention which states are involved but there are tax advantages for the non-military spouse as well.  You may not have to pay state taxes on your income.  Here is a link that discusses how each state handles military and military spouse income.  If you do need to file then here are the steps to get the state returns generated. 

 

1. Click "My info" in the left hand menu

2.  Scroll down to "Other State Income" 

3.  "Edit"

4.  There you can review the income list and answer "yes" or "no" as applicable.
