I am a VA resident and work in DC on a part-time basis. My employer erroneously withheld my wages for DC income taxes for 2018. I have left the company in December.
Is there a way to claim a refund for the DC withheld wages? Does Turbo Tax have a function to do that? Thanks.

When you have completed your Federal return, click "State" from the left side of your screen and TurboTax will walk you through the preparation of both State Returns. Be sure to do you DC return first, and then your VA.

My employer had me withholding DC taxes even though I am a resident of VA. As TurboTax had it, I ended up doing VA only and I have now added DC. Why is it important to do DC first and then VA?
@tkeirnan --
File DC Form D-40B to obtain a refund of the incorrectly withheld DC taxes. If you did not reside in DC in 2021, it is not necessary for you to file a DC tax return. You can download Form D-40B here:

If you haven't done so already, advise your employer that you are a resident of VA and ask them to begin withholding taxes for VA and cease withholding for DC.
