I live in Ohio and work during few weeks as independent contractor at nearest city but it is KY and company which gave me 1099 registered in KY. Should I pay KY taxes?

OH and KY have a reciprocal agreement in which residents of OH do *not* have to pay KY income tax. When filing your OH return, just add the wages from your 1099 to those of your W-2(s) to get your gross income for the year.
I'd have answered sooner, but I wanted to find a link to an official form or website that stated this. See the section on page 1 titled "Who Must Withhold" and the detail from #7.
PLEASE, people, when answering questions regarding state taxes, learn if there is an agreement between those states regarding income tax BEFORE you answer incorrectly.
And for you who thinks the state doesn't know you received a 1099 .... businesses report to the state EXACTLY to whom they issue 1099's and for how much. If you haven't been caught yet it's just a matter of time.

Technically you file taxes in the state you live, and then in the state you work.
As this is a 1099 and no income tax was withheld, I would just file in Ohio and federal.
It would be nearly impossible for Kentucky to find out you were physically in their state to earn the money.
I do some independent contracting and get 1099's from across America, I have never filed any state taxes except the state I live in.

Yes you should file returns in both OH and KY. Your KY return should have the number of days you worked there and the amount of money you earned doing that work. That amount should be taxed by KY. Make sure that amount of earnings is NOT on your OH return.

Yes you want to file state taxes for both. KY for those wages and Oh just to say those wages were not taxable there.

If you work in KY, yes. If you don't actually work in KY, then it's not taxable by KY.

You owe state tax to the state where the income was earned.
