Moving States & Remote Work
“I moved from Virginia to Washington this year, how do I file taxes in both states?”
A move from Virginia to Washington can create a split-year filing situation, and the details often depend on when the move happened, where income was earned, and whether any wages, remote work, or other income remained connected to Virginia after the move. Since Washington does not have a state income tax, the main question is often how Virginia treats the period before the move and whether any source-based income still ties back to Virginia. Residency status, employer payroll records, and the timing of the relocation are common factors that shape how the returns are prepared. A short conversation with a CPA can sort out what applies to your specific numbers.
