Mississippi taxes residents on all income, and it decides residency by domicile rather than a bright-line day count.
Mississippi decides residency by domicile, not a bright-line day count. You are a resident while Mississippi is your permanent home. Mississippi residency turns entirely on domicile; you remain a resident until you affirmatively establish domicile elsewhere. Your day count is still strong evidence of where you are domiciled.
Mississippi taxes you as a resident based on domicile, your one true, fixed, permanent home. Mississippi residency turns entirely on domicile; you remain a resident until you affirmatively establish domicile elsewhere. There is no separate abode-plus-days statutory-resident trap for non-domiciliaries.
Even without a bright-line day rule, where you spend your time is central evidence of where you are domiciled. In an audit the burden is on you to prove the days you were outside the state. A contemporaneous day-by-day log, backed by phone, card, and travel records, is the strongest defense.
