Tax - Living in CT, RV in NY

[CT Pete]

Hi

I hope someone can advise on this odd situation I am am going into.

I am buying a 2023 RV (towable) in CT but and have a season pitch and will be wintering the RV in New York, so won’t be coming back CT at all. I am CT resident

Should I/can I register in New York and Skip CT. CT charges 6.25% sales tax and a yearly tax.

However I can’t understand how the cross state thing would work.

Any ideas?

You will have to pay the sales tax in NY if you register it here.Varies by county ours is 8%

Take your pick of which state's taxes you want to pay. The path of least resistance is CT, but some day NY may ask why the RV has CT tags when is it is in NY year-around.
