My father went to Florida and won a 50k lottery drawn. He didnt play a single dime in Florida but he had to pay the New York state tax quite a bit because that is where he lives. 

That is because Florida doesn't have a state income tax. If I were to make money in, say, North Dakota, I would have to file a nonresident return in North Dakota, and a resident return in Minnesota. There are credits based off how much you pay in the Minnesota tax, but I would have to ask somebody who has done more tax stuff to know which state ultimately gets what share of the money.



Money can't buy happiness. Just video games, which make me happy.
