I file by mail also. Yes, it does take longer, but not too long.
I've done seven interstate moves in the last 16 years. The multiple state tax thing is a pain. I never realised how good I had it in Minnesota until I started filling out other state's tax forms. I think someone takes sadistic pleasure in making them unduly complicated.
State revenue departments target former residents for audits. They assess additional tax a few years later for just a little less than it would cost to return and argue the additional tax. Most people, like me, just pay it because it is cheaper than fighting it.
