Live and work in Ohio. Gambling winnings in W Virginia. Do I file WV taxes?

Question

I live and work in Ohio but won money gambling in West Virginia.  Do I need to file a West Virginia income tax return?

Answer

Nonresidents are required to file a West Virginia return if they receive any West Virginia-source income during the year.

If you have a W-2G with gambling winnings reported from WV, you will need to report that income to both states.
