Hi,
I worked in Florida for first 4 months of 2009, and then moved to CA, and have been working there since then.

Now my employer has issued 2 W-2 forms, first one describing wages received in FL (for 4 months of 2009, Jan-April), and other one for wages received in CA (May-Dec 2009).

Can I combine both the wages together and file Federal return; And use the one I have for CA wages to do CA tax return?

Also, I'm married, and W-2 says so, but under exemptions /allowances it says 0. Can I claim 2 exemptions while filing returns?

Thanks,
Ray

Yes. Its good they gave you 2 of them. Be sure to send both with your federal return so it matches with what the feds have received for you.

About your filing status and dependents, ignore W-2. Do what is correct.
