Moving States & Remote Work

“I relocated from Illinois to Georgia this year, how do I do my state tax returns?”

CommonQuick Question · 30 min · $95

A move from Illinois to Georgia can create a part-year filing picture, since state returns often depend on residency dates, where income was earned, and whether any wages or other income were sourced to Illinois before or after the move. The details can also change based on how your employer withheld state tax, whether you had income from remote work, and whether any credits or reciprocity rules apply in your situation. Many taxpayers also need to review final Illinois filing requirements and a Georgia return for the new resident period. A CPA who reads your specifics can usually tell you, in plain English, where this lands.

  • 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.
