what he said is this: if you look at a map of th ratio of tax money sent to the federal government v. fed tax money coming in, it almost perfectly overlays a map showing the voting tenancy of the states. i.e. NY & CA send in a lot more tax dollars to the Federal government than they ever get back, and the Mississippis & Oklahomas get a lot more than they every pay out.
MOD INPUT: We can talk economics, but this is getting awfully political. Please steer clear of that.
Getting taxed in 2 states, that's crazy!! Anybody else have this come up in any states other than CA?
The only state that has hit any of my clients on this is California, though it is possible that other states may try it as well. I was able to resolve the matter for my clients without them having to pay CA state income tax. Give me a call if you do get hit with this. I can either respond to the California Franchise Tax Board on your behalf or file an amended return in your home state to get credit for tax paid to CA if you already paid them. You can go to AirlineCPA.com - AIRLINE CREW TAXES and PER DIEM for my contact info.
I would strongly favor pushing California out into the ocean and watching it float away, then they could join up on china and be a complete communist country. Rolling blackouts, earthquakes, pollution, smog, mudslides, through the roof cost of living, extremely high taxes, legalizing illegal immigration, bastardizing and harassing on our US service members, nancy pelosi, san francisco.
California wants you to pay double taxes because they need to put food on the table of all their new 'immigrants' and put their kids through college for free. California, the worst place on earth.
I thought I've heard the most ignorant comment on this message board a few months back, I am obviously mistaken. I'd like to hear the facts surrounding your claims. I'd like to put ignorant people like you on an iceberg and have you float away out of the US. Do you even know what communism means?
First of all I'm pretty sure CA is #1 on the list of Federal Tax Revenues by state, you watch CA float away, you will see over $300 billion float away yearly. I'd rather have one earthquake every 20 years than 20 tornadoes every year. Your other claims, name one state that does not have that.
I like California, and San Diego in particular, so I think I'll just keep living here.
I was eating at a restaurant the other day, and some guy was talking smack on his cell phone... how terrible California is, and how he can't wait to leave. I offered to buy him a one-way plane ticket that left immediately. Sure don't want him to suffer one more minute.
About 75 degrees today, clear blue skies, light coastal breeze. Think I'll have an ice tea.
Yikes, I read that blurb about non-residents and calculating how much flight time occurs in CA and how much time of your trip is spent in CA (ie. layovers). It sounds like a very convoluted formula for determining how much you need to pay. I've been working in CA and living out of state for a couple of years and have only had to pay CA disability taxes. I was told that if you work for the airlines and are already paying another state's taxes, you are not obligated to pay taxes in another state that you are working in. But I have never been audited or been asked by CA to pay up.

Agreed. Stay out of California if you dont like it. I dont live there now but wish I did. I have been to every state in the country, and many, many countries all over the world and there is no place like California. I love it. All you East Coasters or whereever you live, can stay on your side of the country, in your run down cities, and I'll keep enjoying the 75 degree year round weather, mountains, deserts, and Pacific Ocean. Stay out children.
