I proved that I was a resident on the audit form, but was told not to pursue the appeal unless I could prove that I wasn't in Reno Nevada (on a work trip) when I filed. So I didn't appeal.  Sounds like others were successfully appealed. The state should at least be consistent on the rule.
It is a trick question IMO. It clearly shouldn't matter from where you are filing an online application, at the time the application gave no indication that it would allow you to explain why you were not filing from a computer in Alaska. I believe they changed that since.
