Most states allow a credit for taxes paid to another state, which helps avoid double state taxation, though it might not eliminate the burden. For example, if you live in a state with a 5% income tax but work in a state with an 8% tax, you'll pay the full 8% to the work state and claim a credit to offset what you owe your home state, effectively paying only 3% more. Consulting a tax professional and understanding specific state rules is essential. #StateTaxes #TaxCredits #AvoidDoubleTaxation #TaxTips
