STATE RESIDENCE - EXCLUDED TIME
ISSUE DATE: 03/2026
Moving from another state directly into an excluded time residence in Minnesota may prevent people from gaining Minnesota residence until they leave the excluded time residence.

Time spent in a domestic violence shelter counts toward the 30-day requirement.

See 0010.18.33 (Verifying Family Violence), 0011.06 (State Residence), 0011.06.09 (State Residence - 30-Day Requirement).
