Select that you do "commute daily" in order to get the result that you are entitled to as a remote worker. In our technology age, commuting can be physically or telecommuting.
Although certain states have varying non-resident tax laws, generally, if you live in one state and work in another remotely (so you don’t physically travel to another state for work), then you would only file and pay taxes to your resident state.
That means, if you’re working remotely you’ll only have to file a resident tax return to the state you live in.
However, if your W-2 form lists a state other than your resident state, then you’ll need to also file a non-resident tax return to the state listed. In other words, you’ll file two state tax returns; a resident return to the state you live in and a non-resident return to the state listed on your W-2 (the state your company is located in).
