Various factors are considered in determining whether
a taxpayer has close ties with a particular state, including:
• Where you are physically present
• Where you have sources of income
• Where you register to vote
• Where you own a house
• Where you claim the homeowner's exemption
• Where your driver's license issued
• Where your closest business contacts are? i.e. attorneys, accountants,
banks, etc.
• Where your closest social contacts are, including clubs
• Where your vehicles are registered
• Where your minor children attend school, and whether you paid
resident or non-resident tuition
• Which state has jurisdiction in the administration of your
wills and trusts
• Where you obtained a homestead exemption
• Where you maintain a safety deposit box
• Where you filed an affidavit of domicile
• Where you own a cemetery plot
While no factor by itself can positively determine residency, registering
to vote or claiming the homeowner's exemption in California, for example,
has been found to make the taxpayer a California resident, regardless
of the other factors.
