My W2 Company I work for paid North Carolina 38.99 dollars in taxes from my paycheck because I worked 3 days at a clients site as a consultant.  When filing the North Carolina return they are saying I owe another 19 dollars.  I just want to make sure I'm doing it right.  Its annoying..  Thoughts?

    Being $19 off on $39 of withholding is not unusual. It's more likely right than wrong.  But you haven't provided enough info for a concrete answer.

    What information would you need?   The W2 had my State wages, tips, etc. 1688.00.

    Follow the NC tax form. That said, $60 is about right on  $1688 of NC source income.
