Part time California or Nevada resident?
Hello, I have read all your info about "domicile" and I understand the concept. I would say I am in transition. When you refer to "the strength of your ties" this seems to be a grey area. Since I have retired from my California employer, my "ties" to California are disappearing quickly. Also, since starting my job in Nevada, in conjunction with living there and paying rent there, my "ties" to Nevada are materializing just as quickly. We have spent 66% of our time in Nevada including weekends and some holidays. Major holidays are now spent in Arizona with family. I consider the strength of these family "ties" to be overriding factor, not my California drivers license. I realize that my California sourced pension will probably be taxed for the whole year. My Nevada income and residence ties are growing substantially stronger during 2021 and California ties are going away. Have I made enough of a case for part time residence in either state?
Thank you for your consideration.
