Q. What if it was more of an employer preference and not a requirement? Meaning, the job COULD be performed in both locations but I was asked to move?
A. It depends on the details. What is you do and where do you do it (work from home or at a company facility). Is the employer paying for the move. Is there some personal reason for moving. Why does the employer prefer you to be there. What is about the "new role" that makes the new location better. The employer preferring the new location is probably good enough, if there's a business reason for the preference.
The TT site says "as long as the sale results from a job change".
