Right now, I am part of a rotational program that has me rotate to new roles every 8 months all across the United States. I am originally from Oregon, but since then, have moved to Washington and Texas for two separate roles. Originally, when I moved to Washington, I changed my address to Washington where I was not paying income tax. However, when tax season came around, people were telling me that because I was only temporarily living and working in Washington, I was still supposed to file in Oregon as that is my permanent address. When I did my own research into it, I couldn’t see a way around it so I had changed my tax address to Oregon and was paying Oregon taxes. When I moved to Texas, I did the same and kept paying. With both of those states not having income taxes, it was more of a nuisance than an issue paying for Oregon taxes. However, now I am about to move to Pennsylvania where they do have their own income tax and now I am hearing I will be paying that because I worked and earned income there. I am confused on how this all works now and need to organize this all out as Oregon is already taking a large chunk of my paycheck and would prefer not to pay out more to Pennsylvania. Do I maintain Oregon as my permanent address and continue paying for Oregon income taxes or was I supposed to switch every rotation?
