I made about $200k 1099 and plan to do another 100k before I quit this June. Never set foot there. If I just don't file what are the chances they'll send me a demand letter? My father says once that happens I will not be able to write off any expense and they'll make me pay just like irs would make me pay if I refused to pay federal tax

You're leaving out the nost important info. What is the nexus to CA that is making you think you need to pay the tax? These guys say ur fukt if it's a CA entity. You would ironically be better off as a W2 employee.

Yes I work as a 1099 contractor for a California hospital. I know very well that I wouldn't pay tax if I were w2. So if I don't pay 1099 tax now, will they go after me the same way as if I don't pay my federal irs tax? In that case its better for me to just file the tax now and at least claim about 50k in expense deductions. BTW I plan to quit that job in June.

lots of people work for california companies and don't pay california tax if they never actually live or go into california. think about all the people working for california tech companies in other states.

Basically if I pay I end up paying 50% income tax on that california income. Now that I switched to mo-fr day job it doesn't make sense for me to kill a weekend and pay much higher tax. If I work weekend I end up working 12days in a row..
