Moving States & Remote Work

“I moved states from California to Georgia this year, how do my taxes get filed?”

CommonQuick Question · 30 min · $95

A move from California to Georgia can affect how a return is prepared because residency, the dates of the move, and where income was earned often shape which states receive a filing. In many cases, the California return may still need to reflect income tied to the period before the move, while Georgia may look at income connected to the new residency period. The details also depend on whether there was wage income, self-employment income, or any withholding in either state, and whether there were ties left behind in California. A short conversation with a CPA can sort out what applies to your specific numbers.
