I live in South Carolina but work in North Carolina, which state do I file income taxes? In most states, you would file one state return with the state where you live and another return with the state where you worked, then take a credit on one or the other so you are not double taxed. However, North Carolina and South Carolina have an agreement between their governments (as do a few other pairs of states) that anyone working in one state and living in the other will only pay taxes in the state where they live. So you should only need to file a SC return. Two exceptions: First, if your employer withheld NC tax withholding, then you will have to file a return there to claim a refund of the amount withheld. Second, this agreement only applies to money earned at work. If you have investments or business income or property or other types of income from the other state, you will still need 2 tax returns.

South Carolina. Hopefully your W-2 shows withholdings from SC instead of NC. Former military tax preparer |
