“I moved from Illinois to Florida this year, how do I file taxes in both?”

CommonQuick Question · 30 min · $95

A move from Illinois to Florida often creates a filing question that depends on residency timing, where income was earned during the year, and whether any Illinois-source income remained after the move. In many cases, the state return picture is shaped by the date the move became effective, payroll withholding on wages, and whether there were items like business income, rental income, or investment income tied to Illinois. Florida does not have a state income tax, so the main focus is often on how the Illinois return treats part-year residency and any income connected to Illinois. Working through the specifics with a CPA is the cleanest way to land on the right move.
