Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Hi Melody!

 

Here is a great link on alimony: https://www.irs.gov/taxtopics/tc452. You will need to pay the taxes on the alimony for the federal return, but Florida does not have a state tax. You will want to pay estimated taxes to Michigan until you are considered a Florida resident.  Once you are in Florida, you no longer owe tax to Michigan. 

Here is a link on state residency rules: https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/state-taxes/help/what-is-my-state-residency-status/00/26000. Hope this helps!
