I have a related question, and perhaps this isn't the place to post, but here's my situation: I am moving from FL to NC in mid October and have dividends that will arrive around that time. Since FL is a tax-free state, I'd obviously not pay taxes when I'm here. My question is - if I move to NC in mid-October and receive dividends that month (but the ex-dividend date was in September while I was a FL resident), are they re-portable on for NC given they were "earned" in September but paid in October? This reminds me of my year-end 1099-B which states taxed in another year for some dividends even though I received it in a different year. I hope that was clear - thank you.
