Yes. It doesn't necessary matter where you reside. Some states have reciprical agreements with Taxes. Since Florida does not have an income tax, it wouldn't work. You will have to pay Mass. taxes for the income you receive while working in Mass.
2 :
Agreed. No matter where you live,you pay taxes where you earn.

In addition to having to pay income tax on work done in MA, you may not have completed your change of residence to FL to MA's satisfaction. In other words, your return to MA to work part time may be considered evidence that you are still an MA resident, and required to pay taxes on all income, even retirement income normally only taxable in your state of residence.

any state that u have an income in. you have to file with that state.
