Should a copy federal tax return be mailed with MA state return

I moved to California in 2022 and my wife was a Massachusetts resident for the whole of 2022. I have filed our Federal and California state returns via e filing (Married filing jointly). For Massachusetts state we're ineligible for e-filing since we filed a resident state return with other state source income and are only reporting MA source income for Form W2 box 16. The forms printed for MA state return include the MA + CA state returns. Should I add a copy of the federal returns too when mailing the MA state return ? Also in Form 1 of the MA state returns should my CA address be mentioned or my Wife's current MA address or it can be either ?

No, you do not need to include a copy of the federal return when mailing California and Massachusetts returns to MA. It is not required.

 

You should include your wife's current Massachusetts address on Form 1 of the state return as she is still a current resident.
