No, you only need to file a Georgia tax return in wages were withheld from your income.

Since you do your actual work in Tennessee, you are not subject to Georgia income tax.

I am employed by a Georgia company, but work from my home in Tennessee. I have had Georgia income taxes withheld. Do I actually owe GA taxes? If not, do I file a return to get a refund of all the taxes paid?

No, you don't owe Georgia taxes, so you need to file the state return and report you GA sourced income as $0 to receive a full refund of the taxes withheld.

Is this true for a 501 (c)(3) organization as well? I only do the administrative work from my home in TN. All the service operations are in GA.
