My wife and I live in MA but I work in RI. She is a student with no income. We filed our federal and MA taxes jointly. My questions:
- Can we file RI taxes jointly as well? Is that allowed since she has no income from RI sources? Or would I have to file them as filing separately?
- My W-2 withholdings were only from RI. So when I did my MA taxes, I used the taxes I owe to RI as credits. I still owe a big chunk to MA which I'm not sure is right. I earned wages only from RI and that was reported on my MA return, is that correct? I'm a bit lost.
Thanks a lot for your help!!
