<prompt> Human: My job is almost all travel, and my company is based in Massachusetts. At the beginning of 2013 I was living with my parents in RI, but in May 2013 I moved to NYC. I told my company of my move so I started paying NY State and City taxes. Am I legally able to tell my company I still live at my parents and therefore pay RI taxes instead of NY taxes which would save me money. If this is legal, the change would only take effect for future pay checks. Would I be able to change it so that I pay RI taxes for my 2013 tax return as well? I obviously only want to do this if it is completely legal, I dont want the IRS coming after me in the future.  <response>: If you live in NY then pay the NY taxes. Otherwise youre using public resources that youre not paying for.
