What state does an immigrant spouse become resident of? Can you chose a different one than the US sponsor?
Q. Hi. My boyfriend and I are considering getting married so I can move to the us and become a permanent resident. We also want to attend a state college there. However, the college is in the neighboring state of where my boyfriend lives and we would both like to be residents in the college state (for tuition purposes)! Is it possible for me to chose what state to become resident in? For example by getting married in that state? Thank you for any answers you can provide, Nina.

A. Your boyfriend has to move to that state (the state where you'd like to go to college) and become a resident of that state. Then, you two must get married in that state. Once you've done that, you get your status of adjustment approved (i-485) and your green card comes (permanent resident card). Send a copy of it to the university you apply to and a copy of you and your boyfriend's tax returns to be considered a resident of that state for tuition purposes.

Working in a state with no state income tax while living in a state with a state income tax?
Q. I live in Minnesota and I am going to be going to work for a cruise line in Florida soon, for the next 6 months onboard a cruise ship. Florida does not have a state income tax, Minnesota does. Do I have to pay income tax on money earned in Florida to Minnesota? Or do I just pay what is earned in Minnesota to Minnesota? Thank you for your responses.

A. If you intend to return to Minnesota after your absence, then Minnesota considers your out of state income to be taxable to Minnesota. You would file a resident return and declare all income as Minnesota income. If you move out of Minnesota with the intention of not returning to Minnesota, then you would file a part-year resident return. Only the income attached to Minnesota (not the cruise ship income) would be taxable to Minnesota.

When traveling with kids still in a car/ booster seat what state laws should I follow?
Q. I am planning a vacation for my family and I have a 3 year old son who is in a booster seat. The booster seat he is in follows the law in the state we live. When traveling do I need to follow my state law (since that's our residency) or do i need to follow the law of each state we go through (4 states)? Each state is different so that means I may need a differnet type seat depending on the state and their law. I have already found the child safety seat laws for each state we will be traveling through, I just don't know if those laws apply to residents of the state or for anyone traveling through the state. What do I do, or where can I find this information at?

A. When in Rome do as the Romans. You must follow all State traffic laws in the state you are driving. It is also your responsibility to know these laws prior to your trip. IE: Some States have helmet laws for motorcycles. Watch the bikers pulln over at the state line to put their helmet on. Speed Limits vary from one state to the other. You can't drive 10 miles over the limit with the excuse that I have Florida plates and in that state the speed limit is---. Have a good trip
