    Residency and Taxes
    I currently live in Ohio but am moving to New Mexico. I have a contract to stay 18 months. Do I have to file taxes in both states, partial year taxes or can I just file the entire year in Ohio?:confused:

    Turbo Tax says (and this was my experience, NYS and Maryland): Ordinarily, you will have to file a state income tax return in each state in which you earn income. There are exceptions: some states will let you off the hook if you only have a small amount of income, or if you're in the military and stationed in a state that is not your home of record. A few states don't have an income tax at all. Figuring out the state filing requirements can be complicated if you earn income in more than one state.
