State tax filing

@roni1 Apparently the new regulation you referred to is  in "proposed" status. 

 

Section 5A, Chapter 62 of current Massachusetts law states

(emphasis mine):

"Items of gross income from sources within the commonwealth are items of gross income derived from or effectively connected with: (1) any trade or business, including any employment carried on by the taxpayer in the commonwealth, whether or not the nonresident is actively engaged in a trade or business or employment in the commonwealth in the year in which the income is received;..."

 

The proposed regulation appears to apply to taxpayers who normally work in MA, but are working out of state temporarily due to Covid.
