Working in Another state, do you pay double state tax?

[Kerr the Walker]

I worked in CT for a summer but had a permanent address in RI. I paid taxes in both. But that may just be the arrangement that RI and CT have.

Also check to see if the company you're going to work for has an office in your home state. They might be able to assign you that office as your "home" office and process your pay through there so avoid out of state stuff. By no means advocating dodging taxes, but it may be a way to simplify. Definitely would talk to a pro about it.

There's always a section on my tax software that deals with out of state income but since it hasn't applied to us, I haven't really had to deal with it.

This is on the Turbo Tax website and I hope that it might help:

As usual, I expect that there are some extenuating circumstances and who knows if the tax code has been or will be changed since this was written.

I am trying to contact my new HR, since we do have cancer centers here in the valley, have them just assign me here for pay. Wish me luck and if anyone is in Palm Springs area during the week I buy the first beer at the Tilted Kilt just let me know.
