Moving States & Remote Work
“How do I do my state taxes when I lived in New Jersey and then moved to South Carolina?”
A move from New Jersey to South Carolina often creates a split-year filing situation, where the state return can depend on the date you changed residency, the source of your income before and after the move, and whether any wages, investment income, or other earnings were tied to work in either state. New Jersey and South Carolina can each have different rules for part-year residents and for income earned while living elsewhere. The exact filing picture also often depends on withholding, employer records, and whether any income was earned remotely or from a prior New Jersey source. Working through the specifics with a CPA is the cleanest way to land on the right move.
