The exemption to pay taxes on residence vice place of work also only applies to air carriers. Not sure a 135 operation falls under that definition. If it does not than where you reside is irrelevant.
Thanks for your reply
The company is talking to their CPA.
My wife's CPA is doing my taxes since we are filling joint and she has a complicated situation but he has no aviation experience. He told me that if I want to claim state tax in my residency instead of base the W2 would need to reflect that.
I’m not sure about the 135 under air carrier but could not find more information.
I also spent two months based in another state with company housing without coming to base at all
Thanks for your help
