I wouldn't have had to pay the state of Louisiana $7+K


How hard did you fight that? I can see LA saying you were domiciled in LA. However, LA is also an Federal AGI state, and I am not aware of any provision that is an add-back for foreign earned income in Louisiana.

To put it bluntly, I would have asked the agent... exactly where do I list this income on the LA return?

I don't know all the technical terms, but I fought it like crazy. Hired a CPA and everything. They said me keeping my drivers license or something required me to file it as earned income.
