How do I File a Nonresident State Tax Return?
Simply put, a nonresident state tax return is a tax return for a state other than your resident state. You’ll need to file a nonresident state return if: • You earned wages or income while working in a state that you are not a resident of; • You received rental income from property located in a state that you are not a resident of; • Your employer accidentally withheld state tax for the wrong state (in this case, filing a nonresident return enables you to recover the erroneous withholdings). Like many folks, you may be confused about the proper procedure for filing multiple state tax returns. You might even worry about filing your state taxes incorrectly. Relax. TurboTax can easily handle nonresident state returns.
