Moving States & Remote Work

“I moved states from Massachusetts to Washington this year, how do I file both state returns?”

CommonQuick Question · 30 min · $95

Moving from Massachusetts to Washington in the same year often creates a part-year filing question, since Massachusetts generally looks at residency and source of income while Washington has no state income tax. The filing picture can depend on when the move happened, where wages were earned, whether any income was tied to Massachusetts after the move, and how your employer reported withholding. It is also common to review final Massachusetts residency dates, W-2 state boxes, and any income from remote work, rentals, or investments that may still connect to Massachusetts. A CPA who reads your specifics can usually tell you, in plain English, where this lands.
