“I moved midyear from California to Florida, how do I file both state returns?”

CommonQuick Question · 30 min · $95

A midyear move from California to Florida often creates a split-year filing question, since California generally looks at residency, source of income, and the timing of the move, while Florida has no state income tax. The filing picture can depend on when California residency ended, whether income was earned before or after the move, and whether any income still has a California source, such as wages, business activity, or rental property. In many cases, records showing the move date, employer withholding, and the nature of each income item shape how the state returns are prepared. A CPA who reads your specifics can usually tell you, in plain English, where this lands.

In your 30-minute session, the KGOB advisor handling it will:

  • Read your exact situation and tell you, in plain English, what’s actually going on.
  • Lay out your options and the trade-offs — no jargon, no judgment.
  • Give you a clear next step you can act on, whether that’s with us or on your own.
