I work for a university in Michigan. I'll be moving to Hawaii in a few weeks. It's a permanent job. My question has two parts:
1. Will I have to file 2 state tax returns for the first year?
2. Would I have to get Hawaiian residency, or could I keep my Michigan residency over there even if I live in Hawaii?
Does anyone know who I might be able to contact regarding this?

The first year that you move and file you will need to file 2 state tax returns. One for Michigan and one for Hawaii.
If you are moving to Hawaii for a job then Hawaii will become your new home and after the first year you will need to file taxes with them.
No you can't keep Michigan as your residency if this will be your new permanate place of residence and work.

1. Yes, you will have to file part-year returns in both states. After than you'll file in Hawaii only.
2. Unless you are a student attending college out-of-state or are active duty military stationed outside your home state your legal domicile will automatically change to Hawaii as soon as you set up residence there. You cannot choose to keep MI as your legal domicile. You could only maintain MI residency if your move to HI was temporary. Since your move is permanent the change of legal domicile is automatic.

1. Depends on how long you are in both states during this tax year. You will definately have to file one for Michigan.
2. Most states require residency once you are in the state for more than 6 months. You will have to check if the state of Hawaii has this requirement.
You might want to browse the State of Hawaii Department of Taxation website http://www.hawaii.gov/tax/b2_ebiz.htm.

It depends on whether the states have a reciprocal agreement with each other. If they do, you file in the state you live in (if you live in two states in one year, you have to file returns to both states). If they don't, you pay taxes to the state you work in and claim that money as a credit on the return of the state you live in.
If your permanent address will be in Hawaii, you will be considered a Hawaii resident. There really isn't a formal application or anything to become a resident of another state.

1. Yes
2. You will have a Hawaiian address, so you will have residency there by default. Are you planning on coming back to MI or is the Hawaiian job temporary? There's really no need to keep your MI residency. Your mailing address (bills, etc.) is considered your residency.
You could call a tax preparer & ask them. H&R Block, etc.

i believe you file in the one you reside in. that is the one your employer should be paying your taxes to also. contact the state tax comission in hawaii or michigan to be sure.
