Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Hi,

Sounds like you were a resident of California for part of 2022 and a resident of Texas for the rest of the year.  That would make you a California part-year resident, and you would need to file a California part-year resident return.  As a part-year resident you pay tax on:

  • All worldwide income received while a California resident
  • Income from California sources while you were a nonresident

Here is some information from the CA FTB that also has some scenarios that may be helpful to you.

As to the W-2's, likely you will get one W-2 with income from 2 states. I suggest you talk to your HR department to make sure they have noted your change in residency.

Cheer below if this is helpful!

Best,

Karen
