My husband is a truck driver, the company he works for is based out of PA, but we live in CT. Do I put that he made money in a different state from where he lived?

If you live in CT and your home in CT is your principal residence (you own or rent your home, are registered to vote in CT and have your social life in CT), then your tax home is in CT.

Income earned from your husband's work is considered income earned in CT, even if the truck company is registered in another state.
