Moving States & Remote Work

“What do I do about filing taxes in two states after moving from Maryland to South Carolina?”

CommonQuick Question · 30 min · $95

Moving from Maryland to South Carolina often creates a split-year filing situation, where each state may look at residency, the date of the move, and where income was earned during the year. The answer can also depend on whether wages, self-employment income, or investment income were received before and after the move, and whether any income was sourced to Maryland after leaving. In many cases, the state return forms and withholding records help show how to separate income between the two states, and the treatment of credits for taxes paid to another state can also matter. A CPA who reads your specifics can usually tell you, in plain English, where this lands.
