3 state tax questions?
If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!
I moved from California to Maryland last year and started a new job right away in Delaware, while being a resident of MD. My question is how do I file the state tax returns. Do I file a state tax return for each state or is there a way to file for all 3 states using one state return. Not really sure how this would work.

Go some place they will file for you….but you have to file in every state…it is going to be a new form for each state

You pay taxes in the state in which you are employed, so it sounds like you will pay state taxes in California and Delaware (assuming there is a state tax there). For California, you would file as a part-year resident, and in Delaware as a non-resident. Since you earned no income in Maryland, you do not owe state tax to them.
Here are links for both California and Delaware tax authorities:
