I live in CA/ NC and work in NC in 2019. I moved to NC in late 2018 due to job assignments. Once assignment is done, I will move back CA. During weekdays, I work and stay in NC - apartment. I travel to CA every 2 weeks and visit my family.
My primary source of income is earned from NC. I have a property (permanent home with mortgage) in CA and my family still lives in there. My driver license and car license plate are still in CA. I don't have any NC ID or driver license.
1). My bank accounts are in CA and I received 1099-misc (referral bonus) from bank which indicates box 17 state/ payer's state no= CA. Is that considered as earned income from CA?
2). I filed 2 tax returns in 2018 due to relocation from CA to NC. Do I need to file multiple tax returns in CA and NC in 2019? What is my state of residence ?
3). Am I considered as resident, non-resident, part time resident in NC tax returns?
4). Can I file NC state tax returns with CA driver license?
5). Can I still claim the mortgage interest deduction and property tax in Federal Tax Returns/ NC tax return even though my property is in CA?
