What if my two current jobs have diffferent state addresses?

I haven't done my taxes yet (oops) because i am not sure how to file. i keep all my paperwork at my home address (my dad's) but also have an apartment over the state line. I technically live at both still because i share the apartment and i am not always there. I work two jobs and one has my dad's address, the other the apartment address. Since my dad's is in illinois and my apartment is in wisconsin, how should i file?

What if my two current jobs have diffferent state addresses?
some states have specific rules on whether you pay income tax or not if you were a resident or not.





even though people may not agree with me, i always encourage people to do their own taxes by using turbo tax. its a great tax software and it will ask you every quetion that a tax preparer would ask you. you also can buy both state to see how to handle you personal tax situation.





hope this helps.
Reply:Look up each state's definition of resident, and hope you can define yourself as a resident of one or the other. Otherwise, you need to file a non resident or part year resident forms for both states. In Illinois its IL_1040NR. Not sure about WI. R
