| Hello. I have a client who lives in WI and has a daughter that attends college in MN. The daughter lives in MN only to attend college and when she is not in college she lives at home with her mother. I know the daughter should be considered a WI resident because she is only temporarily away from the state, without the intent to have her domicile be in MN. However, I am helping them with an insurance audit and now have to prove that she is a WI resident and not a MN resident (as the insurance company claimed in order to deny her insurance claim). Can anyone please direct me to any written documents that I can print for the client to include in her appeal in regards to WI residency rules? Thank you. | |

| PS - I have the publication that discusses residency, but I am looking for something that is specific. For example, something (a court case maybe?) that states this scenerio. Also, a checklist would be helpful.
thanks! | |

| IRS definitions of residency may be meaningless to the insurance company - what do the terms and conditions of the insurance policy say? | |

| Minnesota has definitions of residency for college students. If they live in campus housing, they are not residents. If they rent their own apartments, and have normal expenses associated with separate housing, they may be Minnesota residents. It may be worth checking out the definitions on the MNDOR website. If Minnesota does not consider her a resident, then that is another argument in your case. Intent to have her permanent domicile in MN does not enter into the formula. | |
