You’re taxed for the state you live in the majority of the year.

You file a resident return with one state and a non-resident return with the other. You can then deduct the non-resident taxes from your resident state return.

Live in NY, work in CT the majority of the time.

You pay both, you get it back tax time. CT has a cool little program where it saves you some if you fill out a couple forms.

Someone mentioned to me the other night that states were trying to collect income tax now on time you spent there. So if you work in NY but work in California for a month, you pay a month of income tax to CA.

Think this is hard, imagine that for a accounting nightmare.

That would seem to hold some questionable legality with that, since I don’t see how they can charge you taxes if you don’t fit the criteria for a perm resident of the state.

I have wondered how state taxes work if you move from one state to another.

Exactly; just did mine, Federal, NY and UT taxes… Got fucked by the 2 states, almost always happens that not enough gets withheld. Although the extra I got from my company for the relo covered the under-payments with the states.

So the answer to my question is if your company uses a 3rd party payroll service they can correctly deduct taxes for where you live
