Hi, I worked in two states in 2019 with two different companies. Can I do my own taxes with the online turbo tax? Thanks, Mike

Yes, you can file multiple states with TurboTax.  The general rule is if you are a resident in a state with income tax, you are taxed on all income.  If you are a nonresident, you only pay tax on the income from that state.  If you moved during the year, you file a Part Year return for each state you lived in and apply the resident/nonresident income.  TurboTax asks the questions and can guide you through the process- and you can always get help if needed!
