College kids, let's get this sorted out. Your son has a driver's license in a different state, that alone does not make him a resident. You are paying his bills, he lives with you when not in school. If he had created a life over there, you would not be claiming him. When he graduates, if he doesn't have a job, will he come home? 

 

Two options:

  1. He is there for school, the license was convenient and he comes home when he can. He is a NE resident.
  2. He wants to stay and live in CO and that his intention is to stay there. He votes, does and says things as a CO resident. He is a CO resident.

 

Clear as mud, I have a college kid with a license in another state as well. Remember the big picture here. Each state just wants to tax their share of the money.
