Minnesota is one of the few states on the map where the 2024 survey estimates more people left Nevada for it than arrived from it. The tax step is steep, because Nevada has no state personal income tax and Minnesota's top bracket is 9.85 percent. This page gives the official deadlines, the rates and the shape of the move. ## Sixty days to register, and a license window Minnesota's Driver and Vehicle Services says that if you recently moved to Minnesota you have 60 days to register your passenger vehicle, motorcycle, utility trailer or house trailer. Minnesota statute 171.03 gives a new resident with a valid out-of-state license a 60-day driving window, though an older DVS FAQ said 30, so confirm the figure at a license counter. Expired registrations and commercial vehicles must be registered immediately. Bring your Nevada title, proof of insurance and proof of your Minnesota address. ## Four brackets, topping at 9.85 percent Minnesota Department of Revenue lists tax year 2026 rates of 5.35, 6.80, 7.85 and 9.85 percent. The top bracket begins at 203,151 dollars for a single filer and 337,931 dollars for married couples filing jointly. The state sales tax is 6.875 percent. Most households fall in the lower brackets, but any wage is new money going to the state for a Nevada arrival. Ask a tax professional about a part-year return for your move year. ## Housing and income, from the Census In the Census American Community Survey, Minnesota's median household income is 89,062 dollars, its median gross rent is 1,280 dollars a month and its median home value is 329,300 dollars. St. Paul is the capital, though the Minneapolis metro is where most moving traffic ends.
