What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Michigan
I'm a little confused by something and I'm hoping someone can help me out here.
I work in Detroit, but I live out of the city. My company is actually world wide and my paychecks come from another office located in a different city.
I was doing my taxes using TurboTax and came across something that made me think. It had asked me if I worked in Detroit (in a list of a bunch of local cities). I clicked the Detroit button; then the next screen asked if I received income from Detroit sources. I clicked no because I don't receive income from my company in Detroit. Like I said, the address on my check is from a different city. Well, I got to the end and I didn't provide me a Detroit form to mail out.
After some confusion and fumbling around, I decided to go back and select yes to receiving income from Detroit sources. That did it.
But the question that's on my mind now is should I really be paying Detroit taxes then? True, I work in the city of Detroit. But my pay comes from another location.
Any help/clarification would be appreciated!
