Can anyone answer a tax ?

I want to try doing our taxes online this year.... I have all of DH's W-2's. Do I file for two states? Or do I file for the state on file? We haven't officially changed addresses with either of his jobs because of not being sure he'd graduate.

    You have to file taxes in each state you live in/ earn money while you reside in.  You can often file partial residency returns.  Check your state websites.

    if you use Turbotax, they ask you about your residency and will walk you through filing your federal and each state. You want to file for each state you made $ in and/or lived in. Depending on how long you lived in the state (and probably how the different states handle things) you will probably just have to pay taxes for a portion of the year. It's really easy though.

    You should definitely do TurboTax.  It's super easy and will tell you exactly what to do.

    It looks like as I was filling everything in it took care of it for me. So, I don't need to fret like I was before I started. They're actually almost done. I have one more W2 to enter and then just e-file. :-)

    I hate doing this because I worry about how confusing it can be. That and they never send me my dollar! LOL.

    Actually, is he full time AD right now? That can change a lot... We have lived in CA for 4 years but DH has never paid state income tax in his life because he is still a TX resident, and I'm pretty sure its federal law (it could be a mil. guideline that is up to states to adopt, but that doesn't seem right) that unless you buy a house at a station you remain a resident of the state you were when you enlisted.
