State tax filing
No, unless you are a dependent student and only temporarily in New York, you are a non-resident of California.
I understand that you have not updated your driver's license and Voter's registration card, but that does make you domiciled in California.
You are domiciled and a full-year resident of New York for tax year 2024.
According to the state of California:
"Domicile is defined for tax purposes as the place where you voluntarily establish yourself and family, not merely for a special or limited purpose, but with a present intention of making it your true, fixed, permanent home and principal establishment. It is the place where, whenever you are absent, you intend to return. The maintenance of a marital abode in California is a significant factor in establishing domicile in California.
Change of Domicile
You can have only one domicile at a time. Once you acquire a domicile, you retain that domicile until you acquire another.
A change of domicile requires all of the following:
• Abandonment of your prior domicile.
• Physically moving to and residing in the new locality.
• Intent to remain in the new locality permanently or indefinitely as demonstrated by your actions."
