Moving States & Remote Work
“I moved from Illinois to Texas this year, how do I file taxes in both?”
A move from Illinois to Texas often creates a split-year filing question, where the timing of the move, the source of income, and whether any wages or other income were earned while still tied to Illinois can affect how returns are prepared. State residency rules, employer withholding records, and any income that was earned before or after the move can all shape the filing process. In some cases, Illinois and Texas treatment differs because Texas does not have a state income tax, so the details of what was earned, where it was earned, and when the residency changed matter. Walking the details through with a CPA is the fastest way to know what truly applies here.
