Doing taxes for my daughter, who:
- is originally from California (where we - the parents - still reside)
- was a full-time student from Jan through May in Wisconsin
- traveled abroad in June
- worked and lived in Illinois in July and August
- worked and lived in Wisconsin from September to December
Her W2 shows that her employer paid both CA and IL taxes for the period she worked and lived in Illinois, and paid WI taxes (only) for the period she worked and lived in Wisconsin.
I'm getting lost on TurboTax's questions about her residency state. I'm leaning toward considering her a resident of Wisconsin (as she spent most of the year there), a non-resident of Illinois (as she worked only 2 months there) and non-resident of California (as this was her "primary domicile" while she was a student).
Am I far off the mark?
