• Married resident taxpayers – you and your spouse have gross income in excess of $16,600 plus $1,500 for each dependent.
• Minor resident taxpayers – you have gross income in excess of the personal exemption plus the standard deduction according to the filing status.
• Residents working outside of Mississippi – you must file a Mississippi return and report the total gross income regardless of the source.
• Residents working outside of the United States – you must file a return and report the total gross income if you are a Mississippi resident employed in a foreign country on a temporary or transitory basis. If you qualify to exclude foreign wages for federal purposes, enter the amount as a deduction on schedule N and attach the Federal Form 2555
