Hello,
I am considering taking a US Job Offer (Canadian Citizen on TN and non-resident alien for the time being).
The US Company's head office is located in California but I will be working in Michigan initially for a client project.
Which state will I be paying taxes to?
California or Michigan?
Is it based where the HQ is or where you actually work from?
Thanks.

Thanks for the reply nelsona.
I'm using non-residency status based on not meeting the Substantial Presence Test.
Yes I will be commuting to and from MI every week (e.g. drive to MI monday then return to Ontario, Canada Thursdays).
How will I know if I'm getting taxed for working in MI versus CA where my potential employer will be based?
The company has no offices in MI so I just want to make sure I'm getting taxed accordingly.
Thx.
