State tax filing
No, Florida (FL) does not have income tax so there is nothing to report or to file in FL.
As far as Indiana (IN) is concerned, it may depend on whether you are a dependent on your parents tax return. If so, you would have been considered away on temporary absence.
If we assume you are not a dependent, then the income made in FL would not be taxable in IN. Only income earned while an IN resident would be included on the IN tax return.
If we assume you are a dependent of your parents then you would likely be considered a full year IN resident and all worldwide income must be reported on that tax return. Because FL does not have any income tax there would be no credit for taxes paid to another state on IN. You may or may not owe tax to IN depending on the total income for your FL period.
Full Year IN Residents:
- You are a full-year Indiana resident if you maintain your legal residence in Indiana from Jan. 1 through Dec. 31. You do not have to be physically present in Indiana the entire year to be considered a full-year resident.
- Residents, including military personnel, who leave Indiana for a temporary stay are considered residents during their absence. Visiting your out-of-state relatives for a couple of weeks each year does not change your Indiana residency status. You’re still a full-year resident.
Who Must File IN:
- If you were a full-year Indiana resident and your gross income (the total of all your income before deductions) is more than your total exemptions claimed, then you must file an Indiana tax return. A general rule of thumb is to file if your income is $1,000 or more. When in doubt, it is best to file.
- If you were a part-year resident and received income while you lived in Indiana or if you were a full-year nonresident of Indiana and received any income from Indiana sources, you must file.
