State tax filing

Your original post is somewhat unclear about the timing. If you became an Oregon resident before you sold your home in California, then yes, you can claim a credit for tax paid to California on the home sale.

 

The sale of CA property is taxable to a nonresident so it is included in both your CA and OR tax returns.

 

California follows IRS rules that allow married couples to exclude up to $500,000 of gain from the sale of a home owned and lived in for two of five years.
