Military pay and retirement....?

H believes that if his home of record is Nevada (which has no state income tax) when he retires he won't have to pay state income taxes, no matter where we live....

Does anyone know if that's true?

Or is it just true if we retire to a state without income tax?

  • imageKiller Cupcake:

    If that were true, everyone would change their homes of record to states with no income tax. 

     

    I wouldn't. And you do have to have some tie to the state you claim as your HoR, of course. However, KN, that only applies to you guys while YH is AD. Once he retires, he doesn't have an HoR. Well, he does. But it's his home. That he lives in. Of record. 

    I've seen a lot of military surprise homecomings. It wouldn't work on me. I always have my back to the corner and my face to the door. Looking for terrorists, criminals, various other threats, and husbands.
  • That's what I thought.

    Thank you for backing me up. :P

  • If you move to Nevada, then you won't have to pay state income tax:-)

  • IMHO:

    Does anyone know if that's true? False

    Or is it just true if we retire to a state without income tax? True

     As far as I know, the only thing that "home of record" really and truly affects is where the military will move you to when he gets out. I'm open to being wrong, but I don't think that it affects anything else.

  • I don't know if this matters... but we don't pay state taxes while H is AD because Pennsylvania doesn't tax military and that's where we claim residency... I'm not sure what happens once he retires though.
