In almost all of the States, the State you live in, your Home State is the State that you need to file your State taxes with. However, it depends upon the State in which you live and any reciprocal tax arrangements that they have with neighboring States. I've seen some State's that have a special form for people that live in one State and work in another and on that form it determines not only what you owe, but overall if one State ends up paying any additional dollars to the other State. Check with the State in which you reside and see if they have any special forms. Also, check with your employer and see if they have the W-2 Form for you to fill out for your Home State.

Probably both. Employers are required to withhold taxes from the paychecks of everyone who works in the state and the most states tax all people who work in the state, regardless of where they live. Also, most states tax all residents, regardless of where they earn their money. The state you work in would only tax income made in that state, while the state you live in would tax all income. You would deduct tax paid to the other state from your income for each return. The situation depends entirely on the states however, as each is different. Some don't even have income tax.

I lived in one state and worked in another for 15 yrs. You file in the state you live in!! Unless all the tax preparers were idiots. And I think NOT!

Most states have what is known as "reciprocity." For example, I live in MD but work in DE. I receive almost a full refund (about 99%) from DE and pay that to MD plus the difference (MD taxes are higher).
It's a pain but not too hard to do. Just some extra paperwork.

HA! This has happen to me. Both states you must file your state taxes and pay. It's unfair, I know but it happened to me.

Both states. It's very stupid, I know. My father was working in CT, living in MA and he had to pay both state taxes.
He's saving alot more money working in the same state now- hope all works out for you :)

Both. I know this from experience. If I remember correctly, it is an adjusted amount for each state.
