I've searched this forum regarding my situation and found postings
relavent to information I need, but alot more complicated than I'm use
to. I've ony been doing taxes for a few years and have very limited
knowledge and have always filed the simpliest forms since I'm still a
student/dependent of my parents. Basically this is my situation:
My permanent address is in Michigan, but I went to college in New
York. During college, I had some summer internships so I just filed
New York City/State full time resident taxes since I lived there for
pretty much the entire year, all while my parents still claimed me as
a dependent. Now, I'm in grad school in California but I've been
working at an internship in New York again for the fall. In total, I
would have worked in New York for in total ~5 months, spent ~1 month
in Michigan before starting school, and ~6 months in California as a
student, not working at all for 2007. Basically, I'm just wondering if
I can file taxes as a Michigan resident while filing a part-time
resident for New York (I believe to qualify as full time resident you
have to be living in NY for 6+months). If so, can I still get credit
for the taxes I paid to New York State/City, similar to how people who
live in NJ but work in NY do their taxes?
Thanks in advance for advice.
