This is complicated. My husband and I moved to North Carolina temporarily to support our family while our son was deployed. Our home is actually in Washington State. My husband is returning there, but I plan to stay in NC to continue helping out, as our son will be doing some long trainings. My husband is the primary wage earner. I am retired, but will be paid a small amount to provide child care to my grandchildren. How do we file taxes? Will my husband's income be subject to North Carolina state tax? (We lived together in NC for 8 months.) We very much appreciate your help.

WA has no state income tax, so neither of you has to worry about paying tax to WA for any of your earnings. But NC has a state income tax. You will each need to pay state income tax to NC for the earnings you received while living and working in NC.
Thank you for your very clear answer. You have been a big help 🙂
