Moving States & Remote Work
“I moved from California to South Carolina this year, how do I file taxes in both?”
A move from California to South Carolina often creates a part-year filing situation, where the timing of the move, the source of income, and whether any wages, business income, or investment income were earned before and after the move can affect both state returns. California residency rules and South Carolina residency rules are usually central, along with how your employer handled withholding and whether any income was tied to work performed in each state. In many cases, the final answer also depends on whether you kept any ties to California after relocating and how records show the date your domicile changed. A focused session can map this against your actual situation in plain English.
In your 30-minute session, the KGOB advisor handling it will:
- Read your exact situation and tell you, in plain English, what’s actually going on.
- 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.
