usually it is when one is there over six months.Service companies do service work in most every state using staff that flies into or drives into those states to perform work. Sorry, you're wrong. Again, i've been in the business 43 years and son, not one of our hundreds of employees has ever done that over those years.bullshit. My company does business in every state in the country, our field service team does not pay taxes on money earned while in that state. come on man, why do you continue these leftists asses? I don't get it. what is in it for you exactly?In my years working in the utility construction industry, I worked in a lot of states. I always paid state taxes to the state I earned the money in.
I always filed taxes in my home state and in the one I worked. My home state let me deduct the taxes paid in the other state. This is part of why I paid an accountant to do my taxes.
Not sure where you worked, or for how long. But if you work in a state you pay taxes in that state.

"If you earn income in one state while living in another, you will need to file a tax return in your resident state reporting all income you earn, no matter the location. However, you might also be required to file a state tax return in your state of employment. "

"Regardless of whether you're a part-year resident or a nonresident in the state where you are working, you will probably need to complete an apportionment schedule. This form can usually be found in the state's part-year or nonresident income tax return. You use the schedule to "apportion" how much of your income is taxable in each state."
from: Do You Pay State Income Taxes Based on Where You Lived or Where Your Income Was Earned?
"When you work in one state and live in another, income taxes can become confusing. Although you must typically pay income tax to your state of residence even if you earn your income outside the state, you may also owe income tax to the state in which you are employed."
Glad I could educate you on state taxes. No need for an apology. I am sure your harsh words came from a place of ignorance.
And, none of those links say what you think they say. you should actually read them.
The laws are probably on the books, but they are only really enforced for large earners, either via volume or high individual incomes. The issue also becomes muddled in areas were a large municipality has suburbs in multiple States, like NY or D.C.
When it comes to commuters or local work done by a company say based in Manhattan that has work at a site in NJ they typically don't concern themselves because trying to sort it all out would be a net loss for everyone.
