What it takes to be declared in state

So how do you prove that you’re not “staying” in Michigan for awhile, but actually “living” in Michigan? I would think if I have a job, permanent address, driver license, file state taxes in Michigan, and do everything else associated with living in a specific state, I would be considered a Michigan resident.

I do not knwo the specific rules for Michigan but they can’t be that hard to find out. But let’s follow your thought for a moment … it boils down to … get summer jobs in Michigan (so you live in Michigan all year) … and do all your legal stuff in Michigan (license, vote, etc) … and save $17k/yr. I’m thinking that can’t the rule or about 20,000 kids going to Michigan would do exactly that and save $50k. It’s easy enough to find out but I’m guessing not that easy to do.</p>
