Best Answer

You will want to consult with your tax specialist for each state you need to file your taxes with. Filing multi state returns can get very complicated, as each state has different rules. The only states that do not have state income tax is Florida, Alaska and Nevada and New Hampshire and 5 others. If you live in a state which imposes tax you must file both federal and state tax returns each year.

Citizens of the US who have paid taxes over the course of the last year and are of the required age are required to file both state and federal returns. The taxes are separate and are used for different purposes, thus they must be filed separately.
