VA taxes. Know them well. Pb4uski is correct. VA has non-residents compute tax on all income, not just VA. Then you compute % to total. So if VA income is 1% and your tax on 100% of income is $10,000 then you owe $100.
Each year, I file a VA non-resident for an MD resident. Income from a partnership is $400 so the tax is about $24. Partnership is required to withhold so he has withholding of $40. Result is a refund of $16.
Rules for filing are not the way you think. If you have total income greater than say $10,000 (could be less or more) in all states and you have non-resident income, you must file. So, if you have FL income of $30,000 and VA of $500, then you must file a VA non-resident return. Yes, depreciation could wipe it out.
In the case of MD resident, they file a VA non-resident return and a full year MD return. They attach a copy of the VA return to their MD return and get credit for taxes paid to VA. I mention how this works as the MD tax rates are higher. On the $400 of VA income, he pays $24 to VA, but MD taxes at a higher rate. Maybe the tax in MD is $32 and he only gets a $24 credit so he ends up paying MD $8 for income in another state. Logically, one would think that the VA income would be excluded from MD, but no, they want a cut, too. It doesn't cut both ways. If the non-resident tax were greater, he would only receive credit for the amount MD would have taxed. In other words, if the VA tax was $40, he would only receive a $32 credit.
If you asked a CPA, they would advise you to file a bunch of years as there is no statute on non-filing. If it were my own return, I would have to see the dollars involved. At most, I would file going forward.
In my above example, the Turbotax fees for one more state are more than the tax. How does that make sense? My point is that the taxation of non-resident income has no minimum and that the cost of preparation, in many cases, exceeds the tax.
I doubt VA would notice from a 1099 at time of sale.
