Income Tax
Residency
Appellant filed her 2008 Minnesota income tax return as a nonresident claiming that she was a Florida resident that year. The Commissioner assessed appellant $47,460.64 in additional Minnesota income tax, penalty, and interest on the ground that, because of the number of days she was physically in Minnesota, she was a non-domiciled Minnesota resident for the 2008 tax year. Appellant’s administrative appeal of the commissioner’s order was denied and appellant appealed. The Tax Court held that, because appellant did not prove she spent more time out of Minnesota than in Minnesota, she has failed to meet her burden that she was not a Minnesota resident in 2008. Affirmed.
