Employee Obligations (Which Returns YOU Must File)
If you physically work in Mississippi, file a nonresident Mississippi return (tax rate: Flat 4.4% (2025), 4.0% (2026)). Then file your Utah return and claim the TC-40S credit so you don't get taxed twice on the same income.
Employer Obligations (What Your Employer Must Withhold & Remit)
