Moving States & Remote Work
“I moved from Connecticut to Tennessee this year, how do I file my taxes in both states?”
Moving from Connecticut to Tennessee often creates a split-year filing question, since state treatment can depend on when residency changed, where income was earned during the year, and whether any Connecticut source income remained after the move. Tennessee does not have a broad wage income tax in many cases, but Connecticut may still expect a part-year or nonresident return if income was tied to Connecticut while you lived or worked there. Records showing the move date, work locations, and any withholding are often central to sorting out which state return applies to which income. Working through the specifics with a CPA is the cleanest way to land on the right move.
