@amitchell930 For a student it depends. When you stated that you relocated to Colorado, what did you mean? Were you still a student, completing an internship in Colorado? If that is the case, you are a KY resident for the entire year (if Kentucky was your resident state). An internship is considered a temporary absence that doesn't change your residency. However, if you were working in Colorado, any income you earned in Colorado will also be taxable in Colorado. So you would in that case file Colorado as a nonresident, and Kentucky as a resident. Kentucky will give you a tax credit for any tax you pay to Colorado on the income earned there.
Once you graduate (or drop out) of school, if you then stay in Colorado, now you establish residency in Colorado. If/when that happens, you will file part-year returns for both Kentucky and Colorado for that year. But if you return to Kentucky, you will simply continue to be a Kentucky resident.
