If I live in one state,the company I work for is located in another state and I travel to other states to perform work, does that mean I work/make money in another state?

From march to november I was home for only 4 weeks. Lived out of hotels mostly.

If you physically work in a state other than your state of residence, then Yes, you have income from other states.

States that have an income tax can tax non-residents on income earned from working within their borders.  You'd have to file a non-resident tax return in each state in which your earnings exceeded their filing threshold for non-residents.  The filing threshold varies from one state to another.

The only exception would be if you worked in a state or states that had a reciprocity agreement with your home state.

If you do have to file a non-resident state return, follow the procedure outlined in this FAQ, so that your credits flow properly:  https://ttlc.intuit.com/questions/1901271-how-do-i-file-a-nonresident-state-return
