Multiple State/Residency

My permanent address was in colorado. I headed out to arizona  dec 2021 to work for amazon and started in feb 2022. i lived out of my truck working there from feb to may, then transferred to Oregon and worked there from may to mid dec 2022. I then transferred to new mexico and decided to actually move there before the new year. My question is, I was told not to file for colorado because I didnt earn income there.  Although Turbo Tax is stating i must file for Colorado because of my situation. Do i file as non, part, or full residency or just not at all?

If you maintain your permanent residence in Colorado and travel seasonally for temporary jobs, your state of residence remains Colorado and you would report all of your income on your Colorado return. You will also file nonresident state returns for any state in which you had earnings or other income above the threshold for that state's filing requirement or in which you had taxes withheld from earnings.

 

See this article for more information on income and filing in multiple states.
