I have a neighbor in Florida who also has a home in Michigan. I was told that Michigan DOR will track you by where your cellphone is if they want to prove you owe taxes.

Canada is also tracking the number of days a Canadian spends outside the country to qualify them for government health care.
New York is known as a State to watch where their former residents move to as they don't like losing all those tax dollars......
