Go to workcamping forum.

A few years ago, a friend of ours told us his story. He was a mail carrier for the USPS, driving an 18 wheeler carrier, between states. When it came time for settling taxes, his residence is Indiana (and his mail pick-up point), so he had to pay Indiana State Taxes. But, he also delivered the mail to another transport location in Ohio (destination point), he also had to pay State Taxes in Ohio too because technically, he worked in Ohio. I couldn't believe that, but it's true.

I don't know how it all works, I work in only 1 state, but definitely, it can get very complicated very fast. Just something to think about, and sorry, I'm no help on who you could even ask. These forum responses will hopefully lead you in "some" direction.

Edit:

Funny though about our tax laws. When I was in the Army, I was an Indiana resident. I always paid State Tax to Indiana, even when I was physically stationed in New Jersey, Massachusetts, Korea, and Virgina. So it can be a very complicated issue.

Yes you pay your state taxes to where you make your income the wife works in both NC and Virginia and we pay state taxes based on how much she make in each state to each state.

yep, state tax should be pro rated and could get messy if you work in several states.

X2 for Oaklevel.
One shouldn't have to pay state taxes on the entire amount of income; only what was earned in that state.
If you use a tax program (Turbo Tax) it will figure out what you owe each state and prepare all necessary returns. Probably around $40 for the program.

Check with an accountant. I drove over the road semi for 33 years and never paid state tax except for my home state.

Some court rulings maybe 10-15 years ago according to my old payroll dept. We had over hundred drivers going all over. We had to pay taxes (and receive benefits) in the state where the employer was domiciled. Which was often topic of discussion. Some wanted to pay Wa state income taxes, which are zero. Wanted to register cars in Oregon, which is cheaper than most. And if hurt on the job, wanted to be in CA, which paid the most.
