If you live in one state and work in (or have other income* from) another state; that income is subject to taxation by both states. This is how it works (in most cases): You file a nonresident return for the state you worked in, reporting only the income you earned there.
You report all your income on your resident state return, including the income earned in the other state. Your home state calculates tax on all your income, but gives you a credit, or partial credit, for tax you paid to the other state.
When you worked in a state without an income tax (e.g. Texas or Florida), there will be no credit, since there was no TX tax. In other words, having worked in a state without an income tax does not get you out of paying state tax on that income, to your home state.
If you have a reciprocal state situation, the answer is different. See https://ttlc.intuit.com/questions/2895760-which-states-have-reciprocal-agreements
*It depends on the nature of the income, whether it is considered "sourced" in the non resident state.
If you are asking about the status of a state tax refund, go to your State's tax website to check.
