I lived in California several decades ago. The state of California set up a FIELD OFFICE in Las Vegas. The purpose was to find California retirees in Nevada and make them pay California income tax, even though they no longer lived there. The claim was that they earned their pay in CA, had it tax-deferred income there, and therefore needed to pay taxes later, regardless of where they lived.

I was in my 20s, but I knew that it was time to skedaddle, and I went to Texas as fast as I could. One could argue that CA had a point, but I didn’t care to find out either way. If they had that attitude, I wanted NOTHING to do with them.

Which of the three states you mentioned are you referring to as the Gay State?

From my profile page:

...my FR "nom de guerre" is a play on the official nickname of Massachusetts (The Bay State) and the recent decision by the Chief Justice of our Supreme Court,Margaret Marshall (a South African who's married to that Fellow Traveler at the NY Times,Anthony Lewis) that homosexual marriage is guaranteed by our Constitution...thus,"Gay State Conservative".

Its even worse if you are an expat...if you spend 38 days in the US its as if you spent the whole year here. Thus all your income earned abroad is subject to US income taxes.
