Moving States & Remote Work
“I changed from Virginia to Georgia this year; how do I handle my state tax return?”
A move from Virginia to Georgia can create a part-year state filing situation, and the exact treatment often depends on your move date, where your income was earned, and whether any wages or other income were tied to work performed in either state. Virginia and Georgia each have their own residency rules and sourcing rules, so the return may involve allocating income between the two states and checking whether withholding was taken in the correct place. Documentation like pay stubs, a change-of-address record, and any remote-work details can also affect how the state returns are prepared. Going through your records with a CPA usually surfaces the answer in under an hour.

- Lay out your options and the trade-offs — no jargon, no judgment.
- Give you a clear next step you can act on, whether that’s with us or on your own.
