保持一个residence state，比如说美国地址和驾照所在的州？如果是，那么在美国以外的地方居住时是否必须按full year resident的身份报该州的州税？还是应该按实际居住情况，即non-resident来报？
我们住在麻省，查了麻省的税法对resident的定义为
- Your home is in Massachusetts for the entire tax year, or
- Your home is not in Massachusetts for the entire tax year but you:
- Maintain a permanent place of abode in Massachusetts, and
- Spend a total of more than 183 days of the tax year in Massachusetts, including days spent partially in Massachusetts. (Do not count days spent in Massachusetts while on active duty in the U.S. armed forces.)
我们不住在美国时并不符合以上定义，所以应该按non-resident报税。
不知道哪种做法才是正确的，很着急，请8老师指教！多谢了！！！
