Here's the situation:
- I'm a business owner in Virginia
- I get paid by the company in Virginia (W2)
- Let's say I spent some time in Florida, most in Virginia, and a week or two in NYC
Currently I expect to just continue to pay Virginia taxes, but I am confused about a few things:
1) Since I worked from NYC (from my son's apartment who I was visiting and staying with) am I "supposed" to pay income tax to NY? How would NY even determine that I was required to do so? For that matter how does any state know?
2) I am actually on a lady bird deed in Florida for my father's place. We were thinking about moving down there, but I assume we would continue to only be there 3-4 months a year. If I switch over all things (e.g., register to vote, car registration, etc) to Florida can I then not pay state tax? I assume because I'm a business owner in VA I would still have to pay VA income tax on my business income, but could I save on investment income?
