Moving States
Currently, I both reside and work in VA. I just received an employment offer in NY for me to start in March. My VA apartment lease ends in July. Because my lease contract states that breaking the lease early would require payment of the remaining month's rents (meaning that if I were to move in March, I'd be paying VA & NY rents until July), I'm thinking of moving in with my parents in NY in March while still paying the VA apartment's rent, which would avoid me paying rents in two states.
What kind of tax filing headaches does this create? Would I be considered a resident of NY for the tax year, since most of my employment for the year would be in NY or would I be considered a resident of VA for the tax year, since most of my apartment lease for the year would be in VA?
