填加州的税表时发现他们的税率和"federal adjusted gross income"有关系，而不单
单是在加
州的income。但是我当时在加州OPT实习总共也就2000刀的工资。绝大部分gross
income都是在华
盛顿州拿的。 我就是搞不懂加州政府为什么对我在其他州的收入也要收税？
加州的2000刀收入，withholding $37. 税表算下来总共要交$134, 也就是说还欠他们
97刀，感觉
好离谱呀！
求高人解释一下。 |

发帖数: 2105 | 3 CA taxes all your income from everywhere in US. If WA also taxes you, you
might be able to claim some credit back from CA (new policy since 2008? ),
but since WA doesn't have income tax, you have to pay tax to CA for every
buck you earn for the entire year.
I think you might also be wrong at the $134 penalty, unless your AGI is very
low. |

发帖数: 2105 | 4 See CA 540 Schedule S instructions for the double taxation issue for CA
nonresident. I just went through it and I think you are not qualified for
claiming back tax credit from CA for this issue. |

"I think you might also be wrong at the $134 penalty, unless your AGI is
very low"
$134 is not the penalty, but the CA state tax I need to pay. Also what is
AGI?
Thanks,

发帖数: 272 | 6 I know what AGI is now. but my income from CA is only $2000, do I need file
a tax return? |

发帖数: 2105 | 7 Sorry, not penalty, but money you owe to CA government.
AGI is aggregated gross income.
I am probably wrong, as my case is different from yours (living in CA, and
working in another state). For CA non-resident, you seem only need to be
taxed on the wages from CA sources, so no double-taxation issue is involved
at all in this case.
