My Spouse and I work in different states

GabrielVp

Hi,

My spouse and I both had jobs in PA at the beginning of the year. However, she took a new job in Georgia in June, and moved there. I stayed in PA for the year and continued to earn income (though I spent about two months with her in the summer working remotely). We're filing jointly for the federal return, but we aren't sure what to do for state taxes. I was thinking that we could file jointly for the PA as either a part-time resident or a full-time resident (I had an address there the whole time). Then she could file her Georgia taxes on a separate account (as married filing jointly or separately, both are allowed since I was not a Georgia resident). Would that make sense?

Thanks for any advice!
