In August 2023, I moved from NM to NYC. I had a one-time gift of $6k from my parents to pay for my first semester of housing; other than that, I supported myself through my savings. I got a remote job in October 2023 and have since supported myself completely, including tuition. All documentation for my job has me listed under my New York address, which is my dorm. I also intend to stay in New York after school; I go back to NM for school holidays, but I no longer consider it my home state and after I graduate I’ll be living in New York full-time. I still have an NM state ID and am registered to vote in NM. My only bank account is a Navy Federal account which my dad, who lives in Colorado, sponsors, so I’m not sure of the address on that. All my other bills have my NYC address, and I also have a donation to my church in New York that I’ll be listing as a deduction.
Where would I fall for residency purposes? I can’t find much information online about tax qualifications for students supporting themselves, especially students who aren’t just away for school but intend to live in their new state permanently.
