[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Colorado has to be your primary residence. You need to abandon your current state of residence and take up new residence in Colorado. This is what is required for domicile- usually, with college tuition you need to prove domicile for 12 months prior to qualifying for in-state. 
Domicile means selling your current primary residence or converting it to a second property while converting your Colorado residence to your primary. Voting, driver's license, and general life (library, gym membership, health care, etc.) will need to be Colorado. Sometimes you can be domiciled in one state while spending the majority of time in another (which complicates your taxes)- but you need to prove that Colorado is your home. [/quote]

...as stated, this is about domicile. You have to be domiciled at least one year in Colorado and claim your child on your income tax before you may claim in state residency. Domiciled means voting, license, primary mailing address, residence for income tax purposes, etc. It has to demonstrably be your home. Future intent and property ownership does not matter. [/quote]
