incometax.utah.gov says a non-resident must file a Utah return if I had "income from Utah sources". That would lead to my paying UT tax on almost all of my income and Iowa very little. Most posts I read in TurboTax and the web say remote workers should pay tax to the state in which I live and work. Which is right in this case? This question has literally been beating me up, so I will greatly appreciate a studied answer.
If you never actually (physically) worked in Utah, your income is not subject to Utah taxation.
Utah taxes non-residents only on Utah-source income. Per Utah Statute 59-10-117(2)(c)(ii), compensation for services rendered outside Utah is not Utah-source income.
