Are they so backwards they don't have a simple form to fill out if that is the case? e.g. in my state you file an additional schedule [0] to get exempted from state income tax for the part of the year you were no longer a resident.

- matwood 8y agoI'm sure they have a simple form to fill out, but it does not prevent the state from coming back and claiming they are owed $X in additional income taxes - prove that you do not. This 'audit' has been happening in states with lots of mobile high earners (CA and NYS) for awhile. Other states are catching on, and now doing the same.
- lainga 8y agoWhat's backwards about that? It's a genius way for both state governments to squeeze a little more money out of people, while being able to write it off as a "mistake" if anyone complains too loudly. Real backwardness would be giving citizens a way to pay less money.
- 24gttghh 8y agoIt may be "genius" for the state revenue service, but it is "backwards" in that it fucks over state residents.
