There are two circumstances where you could possibly be a Missouri resident.
You are a Missouri resident for tax purposes if you are domiciled in the state unless one of the following applies:
- You maintain no permanent place of abode in the state.
- You maintain a permanent place of abode elsewhere; in a different state.
- You spend no more than 30 days of the tax year in Missouri.
OR
An individual whose domicile is not in the state is still considered a resident if the following is true:
- You have permanent living quarters in Missouri.
- You spend more than 183 days of the tax year in Missouri.
