State tax filing

Here is the criteria for establishing legal residence in a state. All of these requirements do not need to be met.

 

 

Determining State Residency for Income Tax Purposes

  1. Voter registration.
  2. Vehicle registration.
  3. State where you have your driver's license.
  4. Location of your bank.
  5. Location of your legal and medical professionals.
  6. Location of any business that you own and operate.
  7. Contact periods with a state.
  8. Location of your property.

Since you work in Oregon, you will need to complete an Oregon non-resident return.  in Washington, if you meet other requirements other than Driver license requirement, than you will not need to file a Washington return because there is not state income tax in Washington.  However, if one or more of those other requirements are not met for Washington, then your tax home may be considered Ohio and you will need to file an Ohio resident return.
