Moving States & Remote Work

“I moved states from Virginia to Texas this year; how should I file my taxes?”

CommonQuick Question · 30 min · $95

A move from Virginia to Texas can affect both state filing and how income is allocated for the year, especially if you earned wages in both places or kept ties to Virginia after the move. The main factors often include the date you changed residency, where your income was earned, and whether any withholding was taken by either state. Texas has no individual income tax, while Virginia filing treatment can depend on whether you were a part-year resident or still considered a resident for part of the year. Records for move dates, pay stubs, and W-2s often matter. Sitting down with a CPA for thirty minutes is usually enough to draw a clean line on this.
