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: Portland-area Metro Supportive Housing Services tax (1% over $125k single/$200k joint) and Multnomah County Preschool for All tax (1.5%/+1.5% above thresholds) apply to residents and to nonresidents on income earned in the district - relevant for WA (Vancouver) commuters. Statewide transit tax 0.1% is withheld from all wages earned in OR.
Special credit rules
- OR: Oregon uses a reverse credit with some states, notably California: California residents working in Oregon claim the credit on their Oregon nonresident return, and Oregon residents working in California claim it on the California return. Residents of Washington and other states without an income tax get no credit and pay the full Oregon tax.
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 you pay only Oregon's nonresident tax: about $7,148 on $100,000.
