Hello,

I am a resident of NC. I received a W2 (for CA, amount <$10) and 1099-Misc for a gross settlement amount.

Please advise if I need to file taxes for 2 states (NC and CA)?

Thanks in advance!

What was the total income from CA sources (W-2 + 1099-MISC)?

Filing CA non-resident return depends on how much was the income received from CA sources, your filing status and number of dependents.

As a nonresident, you pay tax on your taxable income from California sources. If your income is more than the amount shown in any of the tables in the link below, you need to file a tax return.
