Thanks for the replies. I know I probably need to talk to a tax pro, but just wanted to get some general input before doing that. It seems like the tax laws do not account for modern technology very well yet. Using the "if you're in the state while working, you have to pay taxes to that state" logic, I should file a return for many states each year since I check my work email whenever traveling and even work for a day or two from wherever I'm vacationing. Also, that would mean my co-workers need to file for additional states when the company flies them to offices in different states. What a pain! I know that doesn't happen, so maybe they are just unaware and no one has caught them yet.
I guess no one ever said taxes or laws were easy or made sense...
Thanks for the input. I'll decide whether or not to contact a pro, but at this point it seems like it may be more trouble than it's worth.
