Do You Have to Pay Delaware State Taxes on Foreign Income?
Delaware Allows You To Be Domiciled But Not Pay State Income Tax
Very few states allow you to remain domiciled in their state, but not pay tax on your out-of-state income if you meet certain requirements. Delaware just happens to be one of these states.
If you maintain a domicile in Delaware, you are considered a nonresident if you were out of the United States for at least 495 days in the last 18 consecutive months, and you did not have a permanent place of abode in Delaware for you, your spouse, your children or your parents at which you were present for more than 45 days. This does not apply to members of the Armed Forces or employees of the United States, its agencies or instrumentalities, which means that they are still required to file as residents of Delaware even if they live overseas so long as they are domiciled in Delaware.
When you are ready to have your return prepared please send me an email to get the process started.
