If I am in the military and home state is PA but stationed in CA, do I pay state tax in either state?

[BarbL · Accepted solution]

 No, if your only income is your military salary.  You will pay PA tax on any other income you may have. 

Active duty military income earned outside of Pennsylvania by a Pennsylvania resident is not subject to Pennsylvania income tax. In the state section of TurboTax, when you come to the page titled “Compensation Summary”, click edit beside your military income.   Check the box to indicate that this income is not taxable to Pennsylvania.  This will flag your military income as not taxable in Pennsylvania.

If you have over $33 in income other than your military pay, you are required to file a PA resident income tax return.  This includes interest, dividends, capital gains,
