State tax filing
The bonus is taxed based on your state of residence on the date on which you had constructive receipt of it. Here's the legal definition of "constructive receipt":
Constructive receipt of income is a tax term which determines when a cash-basis taxpayer has received income. Constructive receipt of income occurs when a party obtains income that is not yet physically received but has been credited to the taxpayer's account and over which they have immediate control.
The bonus is taxable by Virginia to the extent that it is compensation for work performed in Virginia. You would pro-rate accordingly.
