Moving States & Remote Work
“I moved states this year from Illinois to Georgia, how do I file my state taxes?”
A move from Illinois to Georgia can create a part-year filing situation, so the state return often depends on when residency changed, where income was earned during the year, and whether any wages, self-employment income, or other items were sourced to either state. In many cases, the Illinois return and the Georgia return are prepared differently because each state looks at residency and income allocation in its own way. Records such as move dates, employer withholding, and final pay statements often matter when sorting out which income belongs on each return and how credits or adjustments may apply. Walking the details through with a CPA is the fastest way to know what truly applies here.
