Currently, I work on California, however due to covid, I was living temporarily in PA for about 6 months. How should I send my taxes for these two states? Any recommendations? Thank you!

Since you earned income while living in Pennsylvania, you should file a non-resident return in Pennsylvania. You are considered a resident of California, since you are away temporarily. So you should file as a full-year resident of California.

You should file your Pennsylvania return first in TurboTax and look for a credit for taxes paid to another state on your California tax return.
