Moving States & Remote Work
“I moved from California to North Carolina this year, how do I file taxes in both states?”
Moving from California to North Carolina often creates a split-year filing situation, where residency, the timing of the move, and the source of income during each part of the year all matter. California and North Carolina may each look at whether you were a resident, part-year resident, or nonresident, and that can affect how wages, remote work income, and withholding are reported. The details of your move date, where your employer was located, and whether any income was earned before or after the move often shape the filing approach. Going through your records with a CPA usually surfaces the answer in under an hour.
