MA Income Allocation

I permanently moved from Pennsylvania to Massachusetts on June 22, 2020. Afterwards, I began working for a company located in MA, as I was living in MA. I did not officially get my drivers license changed and become a resident of MA until August 08, 2020.

 

When I do my income allocation for MA, should I use June 22 as my moving date, or August 08?

    You became a resident of Massachusetts for tax purposes on the day you began living in your new home in MA.  The date of your drivers license is irrelevant.  (That's because some people wait months to get a new drivers license.)
