What it means
There's no day count to watch for state income tax. If you moved here from a state that taxes income, keep records showing when you left your old state and that you live here now.
Keep the record
Whatever the rule, the person claiming not to be a resident usually has to prove it. Log every day, including travel days, and keep the receipts, boarding passes and photos that back it up. What auditors ask for.
