183 day limit is the norm but check your states rules to be sure. If you did not conduct business & live outside of your resident state for more than half the year than nothing changes.

It kinda' helps that Florida has no state income tax.

We use a software consultant from one of the old big eight. Says he files 11 state returns, because that where his income is earned. He also pointed out you get offsets from most other states.
BTW it ain't a vacation if you earning income. Here in Illinois, we have treaties/agreements with most of our surrounding states.
