Live in Nevada, work in Oregon
Your home state has no income tax, so there is no credit to offset the work state's tax. You pay the work state as a nonresident.

Before you use this estimate
This model assumes a full-year resident of Nevada, ordinary employee wages and all workdays physically in Oregon. Check exemption eligibility before treating a work-state amount of $0 as your own result. Withholding is a prepayment, not final tax liability. Other income, a move during the year, remote work and separate local taxes or credits can change the result.

Modeled annual state income tax for living in Nevada and working in Oregon: about $7,148 on $100,000 of wages, $7,148 more than if you worked in Nevada.

Official agency starting points: Nevada tax agency (opens in new tab) · Oregon tax agency (opens in new tab). These directory links identify the selected states' agencies, not your filing obligations. Check their individual-tax guidance and forms for the year you are filing.
This is the usual filing pattern, not a determination that you must file. Filing thresholds, age or dependent status, other income and withholding refunds can change which returns you need.
How this $100,000 estimate adds up
These steps follow the selected home, work state, salary and filing status. They reconcile the model's annual liability, not the amounts withheld from your paycheck.
| Step | Oregon work state | Nevada home state |
|---|---|---|
| Tax before the modeled other-state credit | $7,148 | $0 |
| Modeled other-state credit subtracted | $0 | $0 |
| Tax after that credit | $7,148 | $0 |
Total: $7,148 + $0 = $7,148 a year. Amounts are rounded for display. Work-state wage exemptions, when applicable, are already reflected in the first row; they are not an other-state credit.
No other-state credit is subtracted in this selected scenario. Included county components stay in these amounts; excluded local taxes and credits stay excluded. Federal income tax, payroll programs and refund eligibility are outside this reconciliation.

What to do
- File an Oregon nonresident return. There's no Nevada return for wages because Nevada has no income tax.
- Keep a record of the days you work in each state, especially if you sometimes work from home.
Working from home for an Oregon employer
Oregon has a "convenience of the employer" rule. Limited rule: applies only to nonresidents in managerial roles for Oregon employers. Not a general remote-worker rule.
Local income taxes
- Oregon: For 2026, Metro Supportive Housing Services tax is 1% of Metro taxable income above $128,000 Single or $205,000 joint. Multnomah County Preschool for All tax is 1.5% above $125,000 Single or $200,000 joint, with an additional 1.5% above $250,000 Single or $400,000 joint. These separate local taxes can apply to district residents and nonresidents on income earned in the district; they are excluded here. Oregon's separate Statewide Transit Tax is 0.1% on Oregon residents' wages regardless of where they work and on nonresidents' wages for services performed in Oregon; this payroll tax is also excluded from the commuting state-income-tax estimate.
Frequently asked questions
Do I pay Oregon income tax if I live in Nevada?
Yes. Oregon taxes wages earned there by nonresidents. On $100,000 that's about $7,148.
Do I have to file taxes in both Nevada and Oregon?
Usually you file only one state return (a nonresident return in Oregon), though some states still require a nonresident return to get a refund of any wrongly withheld tax.
Will I be taxed twice?
No. Nevada has no income tax, so there is no resident state income tax on these wages; you pay Oregon's nonresident tax, about $7,148 on $100,000. Local taxes need a separate check.
