Filing as a resident of multiple states

I am domiciled in Michigan and attend school in a state with a 183 day full-year resident rule. I know that I will have to file taxes as a resident of both states because of the 183 day rule, but I cannot get TurboTax to let me fill out full-year forms for both. Has anyone been able to figure out how to use TurboTax to fill out taxes as a full year resident of two states?

You can change your state filing residency in TurboTax at the beginning of most of the state tax returns.  It will be one of the first questions.

Wait a bit though.

 

Are you under age 24 and considered a dependent of your MI-Parents?

 

IF so, your time in the College state is considered temporary (and ignores the 183 day stuff), and you are considered a full-year resident of MI.

 

Then, if you work in that college state, then you only file a non-resident tax return for that working income in the college state.
