    If taxes from more than one state are being taken out of your paycheck you likely worked in those states and likely have a filing obligation in those states. When you file you tax return in those states you may get a refund or may owe additional tax.

    If you are part year resident of a state and work there, you must report that income to the state.

    And even if you are a nonresident of the state and you work there you must report that income to the state.
