Moving States & Remote Work

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

CommonQuick Question · 30 min · $95

A move from Virginia to Tennessee can create a split-year filing picture, since the answer often depends on when residency changed, where income was earned, and whether any Virginia-source wages or other income continued after the move. Tennessee does not have a broad personal income tax on wages, but Virginia filing rules may still apply for part of the year or for income tied to the state. Records such as move dates, employer withholding, remote work location, and any state tax withheld usually shape how the returns are prepared and whether credits or nonresident reporting come into play. Going through your records with a CPA usually surfaces the answer in under an hour.
