Re: Moved to FL to work remote w/o officially telling employer, want address in CO so I can pay state income tax - virtual address, other issues?

You are not really asking an income tax question. You are asking about working remotely for a CO employer. Florida has no state income tax, so there is no issue regarding state tax for FL. You have not explained whether you still have an existing home or lease/mailing address in CO. What do you mean by "virtual address" in CO? This sounds more like an issue to work out with your employer--who does not "officially" know that you are in FL.

The work income of a Florida resident who works entirely remotely for a Colorado employer, from a location outside Colorado, is not subject to Colorado income tax.

Why would you want to pay income tax that you’re not obligated to pay?

@TomD8 just because they may be living in and working remotely from FL may not mean they are no longer a CO resident, just like living here does not make one a FL resident. I'm also not aware of how CO treats residents working remotely out of state. I'm guessing more details would be needed to address the state tax issue. But the OP is not asking about that.

As far as "want address in CO", if they still maintain a residence in CO, that should not be an issue. Just set up mail forwarding from the CO property to the FL address and expect such mail to take 10 or more days to get to the FL address.

Typically, I've only seen this done when the change of mailing address was temporary, meaning for less than a year.

@Carl —. My answer is correct as it stands. Of course, if he hasn’t moved his domicile or primary residence from CO to FL, he remains a CO resident and fully subject to CO income tax.

".....delete post please, did not articulate my question well..."

We do not have the ability to delete your post and there is no good reason to delete it. Other users read these posts and learn from them. When you delete your question, you have just left a confusing post with replies that are not in context for anyone....so now no one will be helped by reading this thread.

The original question asked about a situation where you were living and working remotely in Florida for an employer who did not "officially" know that you were working remotely. You asked about still saying your residence is in CO and paying CO income tax, and perhaps using a "virtual" CO address with the employer.
