Moving States & Remote Work
“I moved from Massachusetts to Washington midyear, how do I report taxes in both states?”
A midyear move from Massachusetts to Washington often raises questions about residency, source of income, and how wages are allocated between states. Because Washington does not have a state income tax, the main focus is usually on Massachusetts residency rules, the timing of the move, and whether any income was earned while still considered a Massachusetts resident or from Massachusetts sources after the move. Employer withholding, work location, and any remote work arrangement can also affect how the return is prepared and whether a part-year filing is involved. Working through the specifics with a CPA is the cleanest way to land on the right move.
