有人为了省税搬去西雅图的吗

有人为了省税从湾区搬去西雅图的嘛？如果公司在湾区，但是从西雅图wfh的话是不是就可以不缴加州州税了呢？

背景：公司现在允许永久wfh，虽然base salary会有10%左右的cut，但考虑到股票部分并没有变，而且加州州税高达13%，所以还是挺心动的

看到楼下几位同学的回复，那是不是应该跳去一个在湾区和西雅图都有office的公司（比如FB），拿到initial RSU grant，然后再transfer到西雅图office去

It depends on your W2 form.

Here is the Answer:

That means, if you’re working remotely you’ll only have to file a resident tax return to the state you live in.

However, if your W-2 form (that form you receive at the end of the year or beginning of January) lists a state other than your resident state, then you’ll need to also file a non-resident tax return to the state listed. In other words, you’ll file two state tax returns; a resident return to the state you live in and a non-resident return to the state listed on your W-2 (the state your company is located in).

The most important thing to keep in mind if you work remotely is that you’ll need to report your income earned (no matter what state it’s from) on a resident state tax return (unless of course, you live in a income tax-free state).

For example, let’s say you work remotely from your home in New York for a company located in California. When you receive your W-2, you see that there’s no reference to CA withholding. In this case, you would not have to file or owe CA state income tax. You’d report all of your income earned from your remote work (and any other earnings) on a New York resident state tax return.

Here’s another example- If you’re working remotely from your New York home for a company in California and receive a W-2 form with two states listed, both NY & CA, then you’ll also need to file a CA non-resident tax return. On this non-resident return, you’ll report only the information  listed on that W-2 form.

已经grant 的RSU 会继续根据你在加州工作的时间比例收加州的税

据说加州税是跟你办公室位置有关系 而不是员工位置

不是啊，别乱说啊…

如果你公司已经在加州给你安排了桌子，那加州州税是免不了的

听说的 楼下也有人这么说啊 hmm 难道不是么

怎么可能。。。

你搬去西雅图，但公司还要给你交加州税，亏大了。这种都要申请的，公司批不批是一回事。

不是的，收税还是根据你居住地址
