Need guidance..

[mdprowash]

I have been considering full time living in my travel trailer for a couple of years now. I guess I've actually been preparing for it with my recent tow vehicle acquisition and by slowing doing away with the things I do not need.

Where I need guidance is... I am self employed (predominately in MD and branching into the PA area) with a service business, that is seasonal. So... in the winters I want to travel south and west. So.. I will need to find a seasonal site in MD or PA for my working season.

My question is.. will I need to make MD or PA my permanent address because I do business here? Not sure how this works...

What about residency in DE?

Thank you for the replies.. what I figured. Yes taxes are horrible here in Maryland.. that's why I was hoping for another answer 🙂

Taxes are bad in both those states....

I almost retired in PA and then MD... but I found that not only do you pay Federal taxes, but City and State and County... Check it out before you invest time and money in either.

You might as well as you will have to pay state income tax in those states.

Definitely Make the state in which you earn your money your home state if possible. I Have had that issue and was unable to avoid living in another state and working in two others so that meant filing three tax returns which is a PIA.

Yes, since you're employed in MD or PA that will be your address.
