Abstract
The Bloomberg Tax Portfolio, State Taxation of Compensation and Benefits discusses how a state's ability to assert jurisdiction to tax individuals who earn money in connection with the performance of services is based on the individual's domicile or residence in the state, or because the individual, although a nonresident, has earned money in the state through the performance of services attributed to the state.
Readers will gain a better understanding of the federal law that prohibits any state from imposing an income tax on “any retirement income” of an individual who is not a “resident” or “domiciliary” of the taxing state, as the determination of an individual's residence or domicile for this purpose is made in accordance with the laws of the taxing state.
