State Domicile Tracker
US state day counts plus the ties that decide domicile
The State Domicile Tracker logs days in selected US states and a checklist of domicile factors, so a former resident can see statutory day counts separately from where they claim a home.
TL;DR — Key Takeaways
- →New York statutory residency can turn on 183 days plus a permanent place of abode even when domicile is elsewhere. California looks at closer connection, not nights alone. The tracker covers California, New York, Virginia, South Carolina, and New Mexico.
- →It is a planning log. It is not a state tax return and it does not decide domicile for you.

How it works
- Open State Domicile in your Premium dashboard.
- Log days in each tracked state alongside your trip history.
- Record domicile factors such as home, license, and voter registration with dates.
- Read statutory day counts separately from the domicile checklist.
- Use the log with a state-tax adviser. It is not a residency determination.
Who it's for
People who left a high-tax US state and still need a dated record of days and ties.
Common questions
- How do New York statutory residency days differ from domicile?
- Statutory residency can treat you as a New York resident after 183 days in the state plus a permanent place of abode, even if your domicile is elsewhere. Domicile is the place you intend to return to. The tracker logs both the days and the factor checklist.
- Which US states does the tracker cover?
- California, New York, Virginia, South Carolina, and New Mexico. Day rules differ by state. The log is planning evidence, not a filed state return.
