I think the OP is asking about the city earnings tax, not the state income tax.

Do you live in Kansas City, MO?  The Missouri earnings tax is imposed on any business or person who lives in or works in KC, MO.

(St. Louis, MO, also has an earnings tax.)

**Answers are correct to the best of my ability but do not constitute tax or legal advice.

Your employer's home office location is irrelevant.  Your home state taxes all of your income, regardless of where generated. But see:
