SO they are not gauging you in Wasatch, they are giving you a cheaper rate at your primary home due to it being your homestead.

Tax laws do not favor marriage. My LGBT tax clients learned that the hard way.

Wants to keep the house in Utah so that he can come back to it when he retires

Don't claim the child in Utah on his taxes. File married separate if his wife is

JAGA97

2/27/15 9:41am

He hasn't claimed any of his children as dependents on his taxes for a decade

Does your dad have a Utah Drivers License?

JAGA97

2/27/15 9:50am

No, and no registered vehicles in Utah

bluebloodedcoug

2/27/15 9:53am

He should just file as a Nevada resident and pay 2nd home taxes on the Utah home

JAGA97

2/27/15 10:06am

He can claim a child on a mission if they are in the US, Canada or Mexico.

You aren't contributing to the local economy, paying local sales taxes, etc

wapiti

He also isn't using local infrastructure, roads, emergency service, etc

workindev

2/27/15 9:44am

He does use those roads and services when he is in the county

concolor couguar

2/27/15 9:46am

Sure, so he should pay a prorated tax for how much he uses them

workindev

2/27/15 9:54am

So you want him to prove how often he was not using the cabin?

concolor couguar

2/27/15 10:06am

If he rents it out, his renters are .
