Moving States & Remote Work

“I changed from Virginia to Washington this year; how do I do my taxes for both states?”

CommonQuick Question · 30 min · $95

A move from Virginia to Washington can create a split-year filing picture, since the timing of the move, where income was earned, and whether any wages or other income were sourced to Virginia often affect how each state return is prepared. Washington also has its own tax landscape, including no traditional state individual income tax, so the practical focus is often on residency, withholding, and any Virginia filing obligation for part of the year. Records such as pay stubs, move dates, and employer withholding details usually shape how the returns are handled. A short conversation with a CPA can sort out what applies to your specific numbers.
