Moving States & Remote Work

“I switched from Virginia to South Carolina this year, how do I do my state tax returns?”

CommonQuick Question · 30 min · $95

A move from Virginia to South Carolina often creates a part-year filing situation in both states, and the details usually depend on the date of the move, where income was earned during each period, and whether any withholding was taken for one state or the other. Virginia and South Carolina each have their own residency rules, so the return setup can hinge on when you became a resident, whether you had wages, self-employment income, or investment income, and how your employer reported state withholding. In many cases, the state returns are prepared to reflect income tied to each period of residency. Walking the details through with a CPA is the fastest way to know what truly applies here.
