Do I qualify for the Military Spouse Residency Relief Act (MSRRA) income tax exemption in Georgia?
I am not sure if my situation fits the criteria since we work in different state but live together in the same state.
I am the military spouse working as a DoD Civilian in Georgia. My husband, the military member, is stationed at an installation in Florida near the state line and I commute from our home in Florida to my job in Georgia each day. We own a home in Florida, and neither of us identify our home of record in Georgia or gain any income other that what I earn as a DoD Civilian. My home of record is Florida; my husband's home of record is New York.
My organization deducts taxes, but I'd like to claim the exemption allowed by the state if possible. This year I filed as a non-resident for the state but claiming exemption would elminate the need to file as no taxes will be withheld.
