Filing your Washington state tax return
Since Washington does not levy state income tax, there is no need to file a state tax return unless the estate tax is applicable to you.
The Washington estate tax is based on the estate tax credit on your federal return. Therefore, before filing your Washington estate tax return, you will need to complete your federal tax return.
