I live in oregon but my pension income is from a job in california. Do I need to file oregon and california returns?

[DoninGA]

Is California state income taxes being withheld from the pension income?

[mhlebo]

No taxes withheld for California; we pay quarterly estimates to Oregon-Thanks

You pay state taxes in the state you reside in when you receive the pension income.  If it were otherwise some poor soul who worked (and earned a pension) in a variety of states might have to file half a dozen state income tax returns.
