State Tax and Federal employees working abroad

Greetings,

 

I'm about to take an assignment in Germany. I've been renting in Hawaii for about 2 years, and I need to tell my employer about my State Tax status.

 

I own no property in Hawaii, and because I've moved around with the DoD, don't really have a place that I call 'home' that I will return to when my assignment to Germany is back.

 

Can anyone tell me what the rules are, as I don't want to end up with unpaid state taxes if and when I return to the US.

 

Thank you.

 

Kind regards,

 

Andrew
