Do I need to file additional state taxes for income I earned from a one time lecture I gave out of state?

My husband is a writer in Illinois and gave a reading from his book in Virginia once. Do we need to file State taxes in Virginia and Illinois?

It depends. You must file an income tax return in Virginia if:

  • you are a resident of Virginia, part-year resident, or a nonresident, and
  • you are required to file a federal income tax return, and
  • you have Virginia adjusted gross income equal to or greater than the amounts below:
