State tax filing

When you are a student, that is considered a temporary absence from your permanent home, so you are a full year resident of NYS and have no residency in Michigan.  You need to file a resident NYS return regardless of where the W2 was addressed to.  You will also need to file a Non-resident Michigan return.  The income source is allocated to the state you were in when you earned the income, regardless of residency.
