Moving States & Remote Work
“I moved from Virginia to Washington this year, how do I file taxes in both?”
Moving from Virginia to Washington can create a split-year filing picture, since state residency status, the timing of the move, and where any income was earned during the year often affect which returns are involved. Virginia and Washington also treat income differently, with Washington generally not having a traditional individual income tax, so the answer often depends on whether you had wages, remote work, or other income tied to Virginia before the move. Payroll withholding, final pay stubs, and the dates you changed your address or work location are common details that shape how the filings are prepared. A targeted review with a CPA can turn the uncertainty into a clear next step.
