do you still need to pay NY state income tax if moved to FL/TX

My understanding is as long as your job is based in NY, you have to pay NY state income tax, even if you work from home in other states, correct?

Yes, if you still "work" in NY than your employer will file as NY income (check with CPA, but maybe some advantage on non-NY income like interest/dividends/cap gains/etc. not sure but there always tax games).

The key is "transferring" to your employers Florida office!! Then they will file as FL income which magically subject their onerous 0% income tax. The bottom line is your employer needs to be on board (and have a FL office) to make this work (at least that is how I understand it.....)

 

It’s where the work happens. I live/work in TX but have had to file nonresident taxes in other states when I did extended amounts of work there (it credits against your home state taxes… which unfortunately didn’t do anything for me)

I talked to a managing partner at a major professional services firm who said they file taxes in almost every state because “some” of their income happens in every office across the country
