    Since she moved out of NY before earning money, she will not file for NY. She made too little money to file in MD or in VA.

    Coleen,

     

    My daughter moved from Maryland to New York on 6/1/19 for a 3 year graduate school program.  She is now a New York Resident with a NY drivers license and her federal tax return will be sent to her new address in NY.  She made $1,303.42 in Maryland as waitress in 2019.  She also made $970.20 in Virginia when she was going to undergrad school in 2019.   Doesn't she  have to file in order to get the tax return she paid for Virginia and Maryland ?  Also, when she has a two week break in the summer and works her waitress job in Maryland does she need to give her employer her new home address in NY?  When she does this will they take out New York taxes out since she is a NY residence??  Thanks for your help

    Yes, she will need to file a state return for those states in order to claim a refund for tax withheld. If she works in Maryland, then she will have Maryland tax withheld even though she has a New York state address.
