Moving States & Remote Work
“I moved from New Jersey to Washington this year, how do I file taxes in both?”
A move from New Jersey to Washington can create filing questions in both states, especially when the move happened partway through the year and any income was earned before and after the change. The main factors usually include your residency dates, where the income was earned, and whether any withholding or estimated payments were made to New Jersey. Washington does not have a state income tax, but that does not always eliminate all filing considerations tied to the move. In many cases, the return setup depends on whether you are treated as a part-year resident, a nonresident, or a full-year resident for each state. Going through your records with a CPA usually surfaces the answer in under an hour.
