What about the taxation of bonus payments and severance payments? I am a NV resident, work remotely from NV for my CA company, and travel to CA a few days each month for work. Does the ratio of days worked in CA apply to a one-time payment like an annual bonus?
What about severance? Assume I lived and worked in CA for this company for 4 yrs. Then I move to NV and work remotely from NV (occasional travel to CA for work) for this same company. Then they fire me after my 5th year with them (while I’m a NV resident). If in my 5th and last year with them I was only working in CA 10% of the days, is that my CA tax obligation on the severance? Or because the severance was after 5yrs of employment (4 in CA and 1 in NV) do I actually owe at least 80% CA ratio?
