Question

Do I need to file state taxes (CA) if I didn't live there or work there in 2017, but I got a W2 from a company that is based in that state? They withheld some state taxes

Nonresidents are taxed only on income from California sources.

Sources of income "Compensation for services rendered by employees or independent contractors has a source where the service is performed."
