Do I get my Virginia State Income Tax refunded if I am a non resident and a resident from Florida?

Hello,

I had a 10 week internship at Virginia where I lived and received money in that state. However, my residency is Florida. Does this mean that I get the amount withheld from Virginia State Income Tax and do I have to fill the Virginia non-resident state tax? I am also unsure what to answer in the checkbox section (attached screenshot).

Thank you

@TomD8 Thank you for the reply and the link. I am still confused with what I have to put in the check box. I did not receive any money other than salary or wages and the description mentions that "If you earned Virginia income other than salary or wages, select None of the above". What am I supposed to select in the picture option I provided in the original post? Do I put none of the above?

Since you worked in VA, you will need to file a VA non resident tax return to claim the income you earned during those 10 weeks. Whether or not you get a refund depends on how much you made and how much they withheld to cover your tax liability to VA.

It was not a mistake for them to withhold money from your wages to VA as you do have to pay taxes on the income you earn in another state, even if your state does not levy income taxes.
