Re: non resident stae income tax
yes, you are liable for any California income tax due for that year. if you have no records, it will be difficult to establish that the tax due is different from the amount shown in the amnesty notice.
it is not certain that California will take collection action against you, but if you are in California or have any bank accounts that can be located, it it possible. in addition a state tax lien has been or will be filed, which could affect your credit rating.
