So when I file for MN State tax, I will just select resident status as part year and put the amount earned in MN only there. This drastically reduces my taxes owed to $300, but I am a bit confused because if I just file my taxes as Married filing separate it says for the same MN income I owe $102 but when I put MFJ this number is $307 after selecting Part Year Resident Status and providing the MN income only.
Why is this difference there?
