state residency questions
 

I'll ask the global population this question.

I'm moving to 1 state for a year then to ny for 4 years of medical training. I don't want to lose my texas residency. Is there a way to keep my state residency even though I'll be working in another state (and expecting to be paying state taxes there while in ny)?

I know you're not supposed to have a driver's license from two states, but if you earn income in both states that might work (one caveat: it makes doing your taxes a lot more confusing).

Own property in Texas .... at least that used to work.

hrmmmm, wonder what the cheapest way is to do that...

Join the military.

If you are moving to another state for educational purposes, you cannot lose residency in your previous state. When I moved from Texas to Tennessee, I remained a Texas resident for the 3-1/2 years that I was in college in Tennessee, even though I had a TN driver's license and payed local taxes.

it will be educational as it is a medical residency, but I'll be earning an income from the hospital.

And with no disrespect for those in the military, thats not an option for me.
